Try Teaching: School Experience Placements

Spend a few days in one of our classrooms to see what teaching is really like.

If you’re curious about what teaching is really like, a short-term school placement is the best place to start. Spend a few days in one of our classrooms, observing lessons, meeting teachers, and learning how schools really work.

These placements are open to sixth formers, undergraduates, and anyone considering a career change. It’s a no-pressure way to explore whether teaching could be right for you — and it’s often the first step towards further opportunities with us.

Complete the form below to indicate whether you’d like to try a primary or secondary school experience, where in Excalibur you’d like to do the placement and when. We will then contact schools to sort your placement for you.
