PGCE School Direct

... United Kingdom
... Northumbria University Newcastle

Course Overview

There are a number of ways to get into teaching. As well as our campus-taught programs, Northumbria offers the option of a more school-centered route through School Direct. School Direct PGCE is an exciting opportunity to teacher train in outstanding schools alongside highly experienced teacher mentors. Your School-Based Training Plan is designed by the lead school and individually tailored to develop your skills and expertise. Over the course of your training, you will gain experience in more than one school and teach across different year groups within your training age phase. Applicants are welcomed for Early Years, Primary, Secondary Subjects, and Special School places that our partner schools have been allocated.

General Eligibility

A minimum of a 2:2 honours degree. Secondary applicants should hold a degree that is directly relevant to the specialism route they are applying to. Contact the Lead School directly for further clarification on this. Primary applicants should have a GCSE grade 4 (grade C) or above in Mathematics, English Language and a Science subject prior to submitting their application. Admission is subject to a suitable DBS Enhanced Certificate and a satisfactory health check. For programmes that begin after April 2020, applicants are no longer required to undertake the professional skills tests in English and Maths, but there remains a requirement for trainee teachers to demonstrate competency in the use of English and Maths in a professional context. Northumbria students will be supported in developing these skills over the course of their programme and their competency assessed before recommendation for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

Part Time Work Details

20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.

Language Requirement

  • International applicants are required to have a minimum overall IELTS (Academic) score of 6.5 with 6 in each component (or approved equivalent*).
