Professional accreditation

We are accredited by the UK Government's Department for Education as a provider of initial teacher-training courses. Successful completion of the course leads to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). This means you can be employed as a Newly Qualified Teacher (NQT) in a school to complete your induction year.

Assessment

A range of different assessment tasks across the modules provides you with the opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge and understanding and skills, qualities and attributes.

Career

Upon successful completion of the course, graduates will generally enter jobs teaching children or young people. However, should you decide not to pursue teaching, other roles in an educational setting, including supporting, but with less direct contact with children or young people are also available. There are also posts available in other public sector organisations such as local government, the NHS and the civil service.
