Taith is an international learning exchange programme that Gower College Swansea has been proud to participate in since its launch in 2022. This initiative has opened up exciting global opportunities for both students and staff, allowing them to travel to countries such as Portugal, Spain, Canada, the Netherlands, Thailand, New Zealand, and more.
For many students, especially those who may not have otherwise had the chance to travel abroad, Taith has been truly life-changing. It offers them the opportunity to experience different cultures, educational environments, and industry practices—greatly enriching their learning in their chosen field of study. These international experiences not only boost students' academic and professional development, but also help to build confidence, independence, and global awareness.
Staff members also benefit from professional development opportunities through collaboration with international partners, helping to enhance teaching and learning at the college.
Programmes like Taith are vital for broadening horizons and equipping learners with the skills needed for a global workforce. Gower College Swansea is committed to continuing its involvement in international learning exchanges and is proud of the impact Taith has had on its college community.
