Erasmus+ Job Shadowing

Erasmus+ Job Shadowing

Following PPLI/Languages Connect’s recent accreditation for Erasmus+ funding, an exciting job shadowing opportunity is now available for primary teachers and principals. Participants will have the opportunity to travel to the south of France in autumn 2026 to take part in a week of structured classroom observations and reflective practice in a French primary school. 

Hosting schools are selected for their commitment to facilitate structured and supported classroom observations and have already expressed an interest in collaborating with partner schools in Ireland. Travel dates are Saturday to Saturday, with observation in schools taking place from Monday to Friday.
