I have just completed an international teacher exchange to Cranleigh School, Surrey, UK. It has definitely been the highlight of my 10 year teaching career. My wife and I, with our two year old son, travelled from Sydney where I had been working at Newington College. I started at the UK school year in September 2016 and my exchange partner took over my classes in Sydney. My motivation to undertake the exchange was to gain new experiences in teaching, travel and spend time with family and friends who live in the UK. We were able to take various trips while using Cranleigh as a base including travelling to Austria, Spain, the Caribbean, France, Scotland and various trips around England during school holidays.
