If you hold a degree (2.2 or above) and wish to teach students 14 years+, then study at Nescot for the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE).
At Nescot, we offer teacher training programmes that equip you to teach within the further education (FE) & skills sector. This will enable you to teach students who range from 14 years to adults in different contexts, such as school sixth forms, sixth form colleges, FE colleges, SEND provisions, offender education, adult & community education.
We support you in your placement, in conjunction with a subject mentor, and provide opportunities for you to explore how best to teach your own subject specialism. Our Teacher Training curriculum is rich in practical teaching skills development and pedagogy and we promote evidence-based research to underpin good teaching practice. This is an exciting sector to teach in and our programme, tutors, and placement mentors equip you with the skills, knowledge and professionalism to forge a career teaching your favoured subject.
Applicants are required to hold a degree (2:2 or above) in the subject they wish to teach. A degree with significant related content would also be considered. If the degree is not in the subject you wish to teach, then you must additionally hold at least a L3 qualification in that subject. If teaching in a SEND setting, a L2 SEND related qualification and/or relevant experience will be considered. You must also have English & Maths GCSE grade 4 or above, or equivalent. Please note, functional Skills is not deemed equivalent to GCSE and therefore not accepted as an entry qualification. If a GCSE in English and/or Maths is not offered then an equivalency test or A star equivalency test graded as a GCSE pass can be accepted. Also required is access to 150 hours of teaching practice over the duration of the programme.
