An Introduction to the Wonder Paid Internship Programme 2025
After an extremely successful Internship programme in 2024, we are delighted to once again be able to offer more young people an opportunity to find out why teaching is such an inspirational career choice.
Our internship programme combines professional development, talks from external speakers, a visit to one of our primary schools, planning a trip and of course an opportunity to teach our pupils. You receive dedicated mentorship, support, and training over the three-week period and in your final week, you can choose to teach your very first lesson. It is simply a privilege to see our interns flourish and utterly amazing to see them stand in front of their first class after just three weeks.
Payments for the Wonder Paid Internship Programme
In addition to all the great opportunities you will receive during this three-week programme, you will also receive a payment (funded by the Department of Education) of £85.00 per day, so if you do complete all 15 days of the experience you will be paid £1275.00 for your participation.

Testimonials
I had such a wonderful time during my internship, 3 weeks full of opportunities that I will never forget. I even got the opportunity to teach two full lessons! Everyone was very supportive and gave feedback both after the lesson and whilst I was planning it, which I really appreciated
Studying for a NPQ has given me the knowledge, support, and confidence to explore and discuss pedagogical development with educational leaders from all over the country.
