Co-op in Old School?

    Hi there,

    Basically what I want to know is if I can do Co-op in my secondary school? I bumped into my principal by chance one day, and I asked her if they would take me on, and she said no problem.

    Financially, it is more feasible for me to be able to drive to a placement rather than having to get accommodation, so this opportunity would be ideal.

    I was just wondering if anybody knew if I can work there, and has anybody done this before?

    Thanks . :)

    Yes you can, you just need to fill in an own placement form, it's fairly straightforward.

    No problems and plenty people do it. Assuming teaching is related to you're course?
