You can enter this course at year 1 or year 2.
Entry to year 1
Our typical offer is 120 UCAS points.
You must also have five GCSEs at grade C or above, and these must include Mathematics and English Language, or equivalent qualifications. If you have studied for a GCSE which has a numerical grade then you will need to achieve a grade 4 or above. We will only accept equivalencies from equivalencytesting.com.
In addition to academic qualifications, you must also:
Have an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check
Disclose any criminal convictions (required by DES Circular 9/93)
Complete a medical pro forma (based on DFEE Circular 8/92)
Have passed the professional skills tests in numeracy and literacy, set by the Department for Education. This is essential before you can achieve Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). It is helpful if you are able to take the tests before your interview with us, but this is not a requirement of applying for this course.
You will be assessed on your potential to learn and not your experience.
All successful applicants will be invited to an interview. Interviews start early November, so we recommend that you apply as soon as UCAS opens, in October.
