Course Overview

A PGCE with QTS is an Initial Teacher Training course, which upon successful completion certifies trainees to teach in state-maintained schools in England. Some independent schools now also prefer their teachers to have the qualification. Our course is offered at the primary level (5-11 and 7-11 age ranges) and in a range of subjects at the secondary level (11-16, 11-18, 14-19 age ranges). Our nationally-available PGCE with QTS course gives you the chance to train to teach in a location in England to suit you. The majority of the course is taught online, giving you the opportunity to interact with course tutors and fellow students, across mobile, desktop, and tablet. You can undertake your training in a school near you, which has been approved by us. The course includes a two-day conference with us each term. If we are unable to hold these in-person, then we will deliver the seminars online.
