Getting into schools

This section gives you more information about approaching schools for experience.

Getting voluntary experience in a school is a good way to decide if you want to teach in England. This experience will give you more knowledge of the education system, and help you when you apply for training or a paid job.

The 'Getting Started' section gives information on the education system, if you aren't sure what level you want to teach.
