Course Overview

The Professional Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) Primary course provides the formal teaching qualification for provisional registration with the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS), giving you the skills, knowledge, and experience to build a career as a primary school teacher. You cover a wide range of subjects that feature in the primary school curriculum including English/Literacy, Health and Wellbeing, and Mathematics/Numeracy. The PGDE enables you to develop core skills in planning, teaching, assessment and evaluation strategies, classroom and behavior management, and contemporary issues in Scottish education. You can also study one module at the Masters' level which can help you in later years to work towards a further qualification.

General Eligibility

All applicants should hold a degree validated by a university in the UK or a degree of an equivalent standard from outside the UK. Given that the demand for places significantly exceeds the number of places, priority is given to applicants who have attained a 2.1 or 1st class Honours degree.
