Course Summary

Who is the course for?

This course is aimed at those wishing to gain the skills, knowledge and qualifications to secure a ‘full’ teaching role in the Primary Education and Training sector. A ‘full role’ is defined as the delivery of teaching or training that involves: the planning (e.g. schemes of work and lesson planning) and the delivery of teaching and learning activity; the assessment of learners; and related student support.

On this School Direct course, you will train to be a primary school teacher and will complete the course with Qualified Teacher Status and a PGCE. We will build your knowledge and teaching ability so that you can become a confident and inspiring practitioner, with the ability to spark children's imaginations and learning.

Where can I progress to?

On successful completion of the Primary PGCE you may like to progress to studying at Masters level. You could also teach pupils with special educational needs or move into pastoral care.

With experience, you could become a specialist leader of education, supporting teachers in other schools.

You could be a curriculum leader, deputy head and head teacher, or move into private tuition.

There are also opportunities to teach overseas in international schools.
