The KMT Internship Programme
The KMT Internship programme provides support and opportunities for young people (like you!) who are interested in a career in teaching.
It is a 5 year programme (Year 12 through to 3rd year at University) and is aimed at developing confident classroom practitioners equipped to succeed in the challenging and exciting world of education.
Classroom Experience
As a KMT Intern you’ll have lots of opportunities to work alongside a mentor in local schools, inspiring and helping real pupils in real classrooms. You’ll gain valuable experience and find out what it’s really like to be a teacher.
Your studies come first
In the creation of this programme we have been extremely mindful of the demands of Sixth Form and would work closely with you to ensure your A level studies remain your first priority.
Benefits for Sixth Formers
- Transferable skills
- Confidence building
- Continually modelling KMT’s pedagogical approach for clarity and progression
- University application support
Support at university
As your journey continues to university we’ll keep in touch with support and guidance while you study. Subject to your timetable we’ll be able to provide further classroom experiences and opportunities to join our professional studies groups too.
Start your Teacher Training
After graduation (and subject to eligibility criteria) we’ll have a place for you on our Teacher Training course where you’ll become a great teacher.
