If you are interested in pursuing a role in the education sector, this is the ideal role for you as a graduate to gain relevant experience in advance of taking on a teacher training programme direct with the national teaching school.

Through Teaching Personnel’s ‘Graduate Teacher Internship’, graduates who are confident and adaptable are encouraged to apply now. As a successful, confident and motivated graduate, you would gain the opportunity to take on a year’s program as a graduate teaching assistant to support within a partner secondary school. The successful graduates will gain relevant school-based experience and a wide range of skills on how to perform administrative tasks, work with students in small groups and cover lessons.
