Surrey Outdoor Learning & Development (SOLD) - Work Experience

Surrey Outdoor Learning & Development (SOLD) offers structured work experience placements across its outdoor education centres. Placements are designed to support individual learning outcomes, complement school or college curricula and develop employability skills.

Activity areas include outdoor education instruction, catering/domestic support and grounds/maintenance work alongside experienced instructors and centre staff. Placements are available to a range of learners: secondary school students on Year 10 and Year 11 work experience weeks, college students specialising in education, outdoor learning or public services, and adults in higher education studying outdoor learning or training (for example PGCE or BA Primary Education).

Opportunities are limited and are offered at SOLD's centres around Surrey; the organisation runs a small number of placements in each centre to meet operating needs. If you want to apply, download the work placement application form from the Surrey Outdoor Learning website and return the completed form to outdoor.

Placements are allocated subject to availability and operating requirements; centres may be fully booked for particular weeks.
