Course Description

UWE Bristol’s iQTS develops committed, collaborative, adaptable and solution-focused teachers, through high-quality training in international spaces. We put learners at the heart of teaching, celebrating difference to help transform the lives of children and young people in our global society.

Study our iQTS (PGCE) Primary (5-11) and you’ll benefit from high-quality, evidence-based training, where you’ll study online and put your learning into practice in the classroom. As part of this year-long course, you’ll study for a master’s level Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), while achieving International Qualified Teacher Status (iQTS).

The iQTS is a new online, internationally focused teaching qualification launched by the UK Government in 2022, which is highly valued in international education. This award enables you to engage in English teacher training online, based in international schools. On successful completion, the Department for Education (DfE) in England, will automatically award you Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), qualifying you to teach in schools in England too.

Entry Requirements

For Primary (5-11), you should typically meet the following criteria:

  • A standard equivalent to a GCSE grade C/4 in Mathematics and Science.
  • An undergraduate degree, or a recognised equivalent qualification. This is typically 2:2 or higher but we will look at all applications against the demands of the course.
  • Your degree does not need to be in a particular subject or discipline to study the Primary course
  • International and EU applicants are required to have a minimum overall IELTS (Academic) score of 6.5, with at least 6.0 in each component (or approved equivalent).

You must meet all of the iQTS Teachers’ Standards, including those that relate to subject and curriculum knowledge, by the end of your training. Full support will be provided to ensure you are clear on the requirements of the iQTS Teachers’ Standards.
