Graduate Teacher Programme – (M.Sc.)

The school has ultimate responsibility for your training while the University of Worcester ensures the training programme meets the necessary quality assurance standards.

A needs analysis, which informs the length of the training, is developed at the start of the course. The programme uses your strengths and involves you in taking responsibility for monitoring your own professional development. The course is therefore best suited for trainees who are prepared to work independently and are responsible for their own learning.

On the GTP, trainees work as unqualified teachers while following an individual programme of teacher training. The programme normally takes a year but can be shortened for those with teaching experience.

Course Features and Benefits

The course draws on the University of Worcester´s experience as a well-respected and long established provider of a wide range of very high quality Initial Teacher Training courses.

The programme suits mature graduates who can quickly take on teaching responsibilities. Many will already have relevant experience in other sectors or in a support role in school. An increasing number or applicants are career changers who want to move into teaching.
