Summary
To become a teacher, you'll need a PGCE with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Our PGCE qualifies you to work in either primary or secondary schools, with a focus on the curriculum in Wales. You'll study through the medium of English, Welsh or both. Your study is conducted online, including live online seminars, with face-to-face support provided on-site in school. You’ll teach in two different schools in Wales (at least 120 days over two years). Students endorsed by a school may be fully funded (salaried route) or self-funded (part-time route), with self-funded students potentially eligible for a student loan and/or maintenance grant.
