WORKING IN LAOS

Laos is a lesser-known Southeast Asian country with more to offer than meets the eye. Bordered by Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar and China, it is an ideal destination for those teachers looking for a blend of history, culture and adventure.

Schools modelled on the French, British, American and Australian education systems or offering the International Baccalaureate programme serve the children of expatriates and Laotian elites.

Most teach in English but some offer bilingual instruction in English and Lao.

More than 10 private schools have been set up in Vientiane over recent decades but many are small and enrolment can be competitive.

Some of the travel highlights that teachers can benefit from are:

  • Vieng Xai
  • Pak Ou Caves
  • Wat Phu
  • Pha That Luang
  • Si Phan Don
  • Vang Vieng
  • Mekong River
  • Luang Prabang
