School Direct (Primary/Secondary) PGCE with QTS

... United Kingdom
... University of Huddersfield

Course Overview

As a School Direct trainee, youll have the opportunity to work as part of the teaching team in the alliance of schools to which youve applied. Your chosen alliance will be involved in your selection, recruitment, and professional development throughout the program. School Direct trainees also benefit from studying with other trainees at the University of Huddersfield on our university-led PGCE programs. Both routes have the same entry requirements, lead to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and include 60 Masters' level credits. Each course has been carefully negotiated with our school partners to enable trainees to benefit from the unique experiences available within their alliance. Youll benefit from being able to learn from and observe experienced teachers, gain practical hands-on experience and mentoring to help you develop into an outstanding and successful teacher. Successful completion of your PGCE course prepares you to start your first teaching post (NQT year) within a primary or secondary school setting. Our courses are designed to prepare you to teach pupils in a specific age range, with opportunities to develop a comprehensive understanding of progression in the age phases before and after. Our School Direct Primary training will take place across the 3-7 or 5-11 age ranges and our School Direct Secondary training across the 11-16 or 11-18 age ranges.
