Entry requirements
The entry requirements listed here are our typical offer for this course if you wish to begin studying with us in 2022. They should be used as a general guide.
Degree
Normally an honours degree, or equivalent qualification, in the subject specialism or a subject that is directly relevant.
If your degree isn’t in the right subject area, or your skills in a second foreign language require refreshing, you may be asked to complete a Subject Knowledge Enhancement (SKE) before starting this course. This will be discussed with you during your interview if relevant.
GCSE (minimum grade C or grade 4)
At least English language and mathematics. Equivalence tests are available for suitable candidates.
Interviews
Interviews for this course can be in-person at the university or online. Applicants invited to interview will be able to choose a date and which option suits them best.
Experience
While experience in a school is not a condition of entry for initial teacher education courses we recommend that you take up opportunities to gain a realistic understanding of whether teaching is right for you. The Get Into Teaching School Experience Programme offers opportunities across the country to book a day’s worth of experience.
