Course Description

Qualify as a teacher with the PGCE iQTS from anywhere in the world, a DfE (UK) recognised International Initial Teacher Training course. This is a new initiative from the DfE and will lead automatically to QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) which will expand your career prospects and opportunities.

The PGCE iQTS course blends applied teaching theory and practice in three taught modules and one extended teaching practice module of 120 days. It has been developed so that it can be delivered to primary ‘homeroom’ teachers (all subjects) and secondary subject specialist teachers. It is a 36-week full-time course, completed in one academic year, which must be undertaken in an international setting.
