... United Kingdom
... Edge Hill University

Course Overview

Every school needs a mathematics expert. That could be you. Our PGCE Primary Mathematics Specialist with QTS course provides a high-quality teacher training experience. You’ll learn how to educate children aged 5-11 in all primary curriculum subjects, and craft specialist knowledge in teaching mathematics.

You’ll spend lots of time on placement in schools, where we’ll support you in meeting the Teachers’ Standards. You’ll gain the essential professional skills and knowledge for a two-year induction as an early career primary teacher and mathematics specialist.

Graduating as a primary mathematics specialist, you’ll be a role model and a leader to your colleagues. You’ll set an example for teaching in ways that are enriching, engaging, and inspiring for young children.

General Eligibility

When you apply, you are expected to have:

A commitment to, and understanding of, primary education in general and primary mathematics education in particular, demonstrating the personal attributes, values, and motivation required to train as a teacher

GCSE at Grade A or Grade 7 or above (or equivalent) in Mathematics;

Suitable presentational qualities, including a good standard of written English.

Before the program commences, you should have:

A degree equivalent to UK first-class or second-class honors (2:2 or above). No specific subjects are required.

GCSE at Grade C or Grade 4 (or equivalent qualification) in English Language

GCSE at Grade C or Grade 4 (or equivalent qualification) in Combined Science, Physics, Chemistry, or Biology.

In addition to the requirement for GCSE Mathematics at Grade A or A* (or equivalent) outlined above, A or AS-level Mathematics would be desirable. However, we are also able to take into consideration mathematical elements of your degree (for example, if you have studied mathematics, statistics, economics, or other relevant degree subjects, such as psychology).

Please note, for the purposes of initial teacher training, level 2 literacy and numeracy qualifications are not considered equivalent to GCSE Grade C or Grade 4 in English Language and Mathematics.

An academic reference is required for all students who have graduated in the last five years. An interview and subject knowledge tests form part of the selection process.

Part Time Work Details

20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.
