Interested in Winter 2025 Distant Placements? Great!

ISA has opportunities available to FE4 students’ teachers, subject to availability and approval. Funding for accommodation and/or travel MAY be available; however, student teachers will need to organize and arrange these independently. The ISA only coordinates the placement for these opportunities and will connect you to our partners so you can arrange the rest.
