"You need to push in whatever it is that you want to progress in."
Teachers have the opportunity to inspire the next generation on a daily basis. Not only this, but there are also a range of funding options on offer to support trainee teachers during their teacher training.
Once you have your degree there are several ways to undertake teacher training.
Study at a university as a postgraduate student.
Train as you teach at a school or group of schools.
Earn a salary.
Whichever route you choose, your training will largely consist of the same amount of practical teacher training and theory work.
All teacher training courses will offer
Qualified teacher status (QTS), which is needed to teach as a qualified teacher in England.
Plenty of classroom experience in at least two schools – a minimum of 24 weeks of school experience.
Training to meet the Teachers’ Standards, which will include classroom management and making your subject accessible to your pupils.
Expert academic and practical guidance from mentors and tutors who are there to help you succeed.
Most courses will also offer a postgraduate qualification, usually a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) - speak to your chosen course provider(s) to find out what qualification their course offers.
