Want to gain real workplace experience with tailored support? Join a supported internship with the Department for Education to build practical skills, confidence and industry experience while working with employers and SEND specialists.

The Department for Education Supported Internships are designed to help people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) prepare for the world of work. The programme is a structured study programme based at an employer and is intended to build experience, confidence, and practical workplace skills.

The internships are normally unpaid and last for a minimum of six months. They are supported through partners associated with Health Education England, with candidates sourced through that network, and they sit within the wider supported internship offer available to post-16 ESFA-funded education providers.

Where possible, the programme aims to support young people into paid employment at the end of the placement. The pathway is active and offers cross-government roles.
