Work Experience Opportunities
Our work experience programme is currently full for 2025. We do apologise for any inconvenience.
As part of our Inspiring People Strategy, we are implementing a robust and productive programme to support student development and further opportunity within our local communities.
As we actively develop this offer, we are have implemented a programme across both our Midlands and London sites, which gives an insight into careers within museums.
Please note - demand is extremely high and we can only take on a certain amount of participants, so we do recommend enquiring elsewhere whilst you wait for a response.
If you are under 16 years of age, the RAF Museum require parent/guardian consent to hold your details on file. Without this, we cannot discuss a work experience placement with you. Before you enquire, please make sure you have obtained consent - or email from a parent/guardians email address.
We are proud to be a Speakers for Schools Social Mobility Partner.We are partnering with Speakers for Schools, the UK’s leading social mobility charity, in our shared mission to close the opportunity gap and level-up the workplace on socioeconomic diversity – opening doors to career opportunities that were previously closed by supporting fully funded life-changing work experience for students from state schools and colleges across the country.

What we can't do
Please note: Our work experience programme is only able to offer experience working within the Museum. Although we are the Royal Air Force's Museum we are unable to offer work experience within the RAF or any part of the Ministry of Defence.
If you would like to gain experience of what it would be like to be a member of the Royal Air Force, we would suggest contacting your local RAF Cadets branch and becoming a member.
Thank you.
