Study Details: PGCE 9 months full-time
Guide children through their first years in education with our Primary PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education). We’ll organise placements at local schools to give you experience and arrange study sessions on campus to help you perfect your teaching style.
As a primary school teacher, it will be your responsibility to inspire children, give them the basic skills they need for their future and make learning exciting.
We’ve designed this course to help you understand how children learn. You’ll develop the skills you need to make sure your students get the best start.
Throughout your training, you’ll get hands-on experience on placement, join professional studies sessions, and attend curriculum workshops.
From getting the most out of your induction, to tips on teaching your first lesson, your personal tutor will be there to support you every step of your Primary PGCE journey.
For this course, you need an Honours Degree with a 2:2 classification or higher in an appropriate subject and a GCSE grade C/4 or above in both English Language, Mathematics and Science.
We also expect you to be confident in technology and have some experience working with primary age students in a school setting.
After you apply, we’ll arrange a selection interview. We’ll assess your subject knowledge and personal qualities, such as communication skills, resilience for teaching, and how easy you’ll find it to relate to primary age students.
If you accept a formal offer, you’ll need to meet the Department for Education’s standards for physical and mental fitness to teach and you’ll need clearance to work with children (Enhanced DBS).

With a PGCE and Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), you’ll be ready to teach in primary schools across England.
Most of our graduates find their first teaching position soon after they qualify. Many of them secure roles in our partnership schools.
After you’ve completed this course, you can join our Masters in Education. Your PGCE gives you Masters credits which means you’ll be fast tracked and can complete this course by the end of your second year of teaching.
