It’s FAQ Friday where we answer some of the common questions we get asked about becoming a teacher. This week: Should I just get QTS or work for a PGCE?
#faqfriday #getintoteaching #traintoteachWe offer both QTS only or QTS + PGCE routes into teaching. Both routes allow trainees to gain qualified teacher status and therefore teach in schools in the UK. A PGCE is a widely recognised qualification which demonstrates your academic expertise – it is an excellent addition to your CV and is often required if you wish to teach abroad in the future.
