EM Direct details

The Student Associate Scheme is funded by the government through the TDA to give students, while studying, the opportunity to work in a school alongside teachers to enable them to get a taste of the classroom. We are currently recruiting in our main areas of Lincolnshire, Leicester, Loughborough, Hull, Redcar and Cleveland, but applications from other areas will also be considered.

The scheme is open to students enrolled on a part-time or full-time programme leading to the award of BA/BSc, postgraduate degree, HND or Foundation Degree. Students are able to work in Primary or Secondary schools under the guidance of a mentor. The programme lasts for fifteen days and is flexible to fit round University studies. We are especially looking for students with:

Secondary Priority Subjects:

  • Mathematics
  • Science (especially Physics & Chemistry)
  • Modern Foreign Languages
  • Design Technology
  • ICT
  • Music
  • RE
  • Food Technology

There are no costs to the student. Students receive £40 per completed day x 15 days = £600. Participating schools receive £15 per completed day.
