Teaching Internships
If you’re studying for a degree and interested in a career in teaching, an internship could help you to understand what it’s really like in the classroom. You’ll get to experience a range of activities to help you get a feel for school life.
Internships last 3 weeks, start in June and you’ll be paid £300 per week.
Teaching internships are only available if you're studying for a related degree and interested in teaching certain subjects. In 2023, these included:
- Chemistry
- Computing
- Languages
- Maths
- Physics
Applications are now open for the 2024 Teaching Internship Programme
