Based at the Tonga Campus, the Institute of Education is one of the several institutes established by the University of the South Pacific in 1976.
The IOE vision is: to be a regional hub of excellence in Pacific education.
IOE's mission is: to support Pacific peoples and their communities in providing quality, relevant, sound and effective advice, research, training and publications to meet their educational needs, challenges and aspirations.
The Director, core academic staff, project staff and support staff are experts in their various fields. Their activities comprise four areas of focus: - advice
- research
- training
- publication
The IOE has close links with the Faculty of Arts and Law, regional education ministries, teacher training colleges and other educational organisations. Over the years, the IOE has strengthened its regional network and involvement in regional projects. The PRIDE project is one such project. You can read more about it on the PRIDE website: http://www.usp.ac.fj/pride.
Publications are a major part of the IOE's activities. Our journal, Directions: Journal of Educational Studies, is published twice yearly and is available online at http://www.directions.usp.ac.fj. The Waka Story Book series and many other educational publications for all levels are much in demand by schools in the USP region. Our new catalogue has details. The books are displayed and sold at the IOE's Literacy Centre (ground floor, Faculty of Arts and Law) and can also be ordered. Please go to our Stop Press page for details of our latest publications.
