School at Sea's program focuses on experiential learning: learning with a direct link to practice. School at Sea makes you more independent and gives you self-confidence in dealing with others. What you do with School at Sea is an enrichment of what you do at school. It consists of a mix of the regular school program, ocean sailing, School at Sea lessons, personal projects, expeditions and trips of your own. We sail, learn, maintain the ship, cook sustainably in ship's kitchen and focus on sustainability in everything.  

In addition to a captain and a mate, there will be 5 teachers along. The first months there is a cook who teaches us everything about sustainable cooking on a ship, afterwards we do it all ourselves. In cooperation with your own high school, you follow your own study program on board. You also take the tests, provided by your own school, on board. You work independently, but with the guidance of qualified teachers and with your fellow students.
