Completing
your teacher training course at Bury College University Centre means that our
highly experienced tutors can support you not only academically but also with
on-the-job training. During your studies we will endeavour to do all that we can
to find you a teaching placement within the college.
This
course prepares you for a teaching career in the post compulsory sector. It is a
requirement that all new FE teachers must complete a teacher training
qualification as the first step in obtaining QTLS (Qualified Teacher Learning
and Skills). The course does not lead to Qualified Teacher status (QTS) to teach
in schools. However, since April 2012 those with QTLS are allowed to teach in
schools on the same basis as those with QTS for 14+
students.
This course requires a health declaration before enrolment and DBS clearance within
6 weeks of starting. If English is not your first language you will need a recognised
English Language qualification at the appropriate level for this course e.g. IELTS 6.5 or equivalent. There are also specific requirements outlined below. You must have the highest vocational qualification relevant to the subject area you wish to teach in such as National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) Level 3 or NVQ Level 4 or Higher National Diploma (HND). You should hold one of the following qualifications in a subject relevant to the proposed teaching subject: HND/HNC, CGLI advanced craft certificate; OCR advanced qualifications; NVQ Level 3; technical/ commercial qualifications.
The majority of students will be able to access a Tuition Fee Loan from Student Finance England to pay their HE Course Fee.
Self-funding students may pay in 3 instalments in September (25%), January (25%) and April (50%).
Course Fee: £4,180.00 per year
