Upon completion, you'll earn a postgraduate credential and be eligible for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Our tutors and mentors will guide you in converting your subject expertise into effective teaching techniques and applying educational theories in real-world settings. The university's teaching staff brings extensive experience in both classroom instruction and senior-level examination roles for GCSE and AS/A-level. Practicing educators from our partner schools enhance the training, with subject mentors offering specialized guidance to refine your teaching approaches and subject mastery.
