Applications and Further Information

How to apply?

Check to see if you have the right entry qualifications.

You must have gained the following qualification before you start training:
A degree (Bsc, BA, BS, etc) 2:2 and above preferred
GCSE English and Maths
GCSE Science (c or above if you wish to teach primary)

For secondary applicants the type and subject of the degree is very important. The subject content ought to be 50% of the subject in which you are to teach.

For primary applicants the subject content is less significant. A relevant degree would be preferential in that it would support the trainee and the school in providing a high quality curriculum.

Please note: You cannot have started any other QTS qualification before. Only in extreme circumstances can you start a second QTS course if you have started a QTS course and dropped out.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO FIND A SCHOOL
In order to apply you need to:
1: download the relevant application form
