At the Institute of Education we offer a range of programmes, both University-led and school-led, enabling you to train to teach at early years, primary or secondary level.
Early Years
Do you want to specialise in working with babies and young children? Early Years Teachers work in a wide range of settings across the children's workforce.
Primary
Would you like to teach primary aged children? The teaching content is broad and covers the whole range of national curriculum subjects.
Secondary
Do you wish to teach 11-18 year olds? You will need to specialise in a particular subject.
Postgraduate Teacher Apprenticeship
Looking for a salaried route to teaching? Apply for the Postgraduate Teacher Apprenticeship, available for both primary and secondary teaching.
Assessment Only
Are you already an experienced teacher?
Do you wish to gain QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) or EYTS (Early Years Teacher Status)? Without additional training, the Assessment Only route could be your perfect choice.
Teacher training events
Come to a Postgraduate Initial Teacher Education event. These events cover all routes into teaching for Early Years, Primary and Secondary Postgraduate programmes.
