Placements in Scotland are currently on hold until further notice.
Student teaching placements in Scotland are limited and can vary greatly in terms of being rural/urban, culturally homogeneous/multi-ethnic, and of high/ low socioeconomic levels. Most often, placements are made in the area served by the Falkirk Regional Council. Students typically live in homestay accommodations.
For more information about Scotland, please visit:
Caroline Murphy student taught in an elementary school in Dunipace in the Spring of 2019. "A major reason why I chose Scotland was because I love hiking and nature. I absolutely love mountains, and Scotland did not disappoint. The natural landscape was awe inspiring at every turn."

Students may teach a variety of subjects and grade levels. In most cases, they will teach in their own licensing area (e.g., elementary education, secondary math, etc.). Further, it may be possible to fulfill practicum requirements in Scotland for the following license additions: ESL/ENL, Reading, JH/MS, Computers, and possibly others.
Placements in Scotland are limited. Students considering Scotland should have a strong “second choice” host nation.
