Course Overview

Graduates from this programme go on to a variety of roles both within and outside the education sector, as well as progressing to further education and training, including Masters level studies.

For those interested in progressing on to a teaching role with QTS, many of our students follow an ‘assessment only’ route after graduation, which enables them to gain QTS within 12 weeks, whilst remaining in their current work setting.
