Teacher Training for Primary Education

At Viaa’s Dutch medium Pabo program, students gain hands-on experience, alternating study with internships. From the start, they spend two days a week in classrooms to develop their teaching skills and independence. The program focuses on modern education, emphasizing interactions with others and nature, and is part of the Sustainable Teacher Training network.

Learning and developing together
The program emphasizes both personal and professional development for future teachers. As a small-scale program, it offers personalized guidance and strong support from both the school and internships. Students also benefit from sharing experiences with their peers in close-knit workgroups.
