Gain the skills and experience to teach mathematics in primary, infant and junior schools, with the possibility of subject leadership, with our PGCE Primary with Mathematics.
Our Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) Primary Education with Mathematics course leads to the award of Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), qualifying you to teach maths to children aged five to 11.
Choose this specialist pathway if you are interested in championing mathematics in your future school. It will enable you to follow a particular interest in maths, leading to subject leadership and/or specialist teaching of mathematics within a primary setting.
You are normally required to have at least a 2:2 honours degree, or equivalent from a university outside the UK.
You will need to have achieved Grade 4 (or C) or above in GCSE Mathematics, English Language and a Science subject, or equivalent qualifications.
You will also need to demonstrate competence in Fundamental English and mathematics by the end of the course. This is a new DfE requirement which replaces the QTS skills tests in literacy and numeracy.
If you accept an offer with us you will also be required to successfully complete Occupational Health and Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) Enhanced Disclosure checks.
