The primary teacher education course is designed for graduates who are committed to becoming primary school teachers. It trains you to teach children in the five to 11 age range.

 

You could also be eligible for the highest range of tax-free training bursaries.

 

As a trainee, you will learn how to teach the entire primary curriculum as well as choosing a particular route.  The Special Educational Needs (Inclusion) route is designed to enhance your skills and confidence in meeting the strengths and needs of all pupils in mainstream classrooms.

 

East London offers multicultural, multilingual and vibrant schools in which to learn, but your training at UEL will qualify you to teach anywhere in England or Wales.

 

Our PGCE team is made up of experienced practitioners who have worked in a range of primary and Early Years settings across London as classroom teachers, curriculum coordinators, advisory teachers and school leaders.

 

At UEL you will be part of a diverse community of students. We want to bring to east London a teacher workforce that reflects the local community and, in 2013-14, 24 per cent of our Primary PGCE trainees were men.
