Course Overview

If you have the ambition to inspire children aged 5 to 11 as they begin their learning journey, this accredited Primary PGCE – rated Outstanding by Ofsted after its latest inspection – is perfect for you.

You'll learn to be an amazing Primary school teacher who can engage your pupils, work productively with your colleagues, and keep improving your teaching practice throughout your career.

You'll study with expert practitioners and academic researchers in your university sessions, and spend at least 120 days on placement in a school or other educational setting, with support from school-based mentors.

You'll also be well placed for moving into school management roles, other training careers or any role that calls for creative communication and problem-solving skills.
