Excellent teachers make a difference to the lives and futures of the people they teach. Developed in partnership with schools, this Ofsted 'Outstanding'-rated teacher training programme will support you to become an innovative and inspiring Geography teacher.
Our full-time programmes last for approximately 40 weeks; you'll spend about two thirds of this time in a school or educational setting. Throughout the programme there is a dynamic relationship between your training in the University and your training in schools.
In order to apply you'll need to have completed, or be in the final year of a UK degree (or an equivalent qualification). You're required to have a good honours degree or above in Geography or a related subject with at least 50% suitable Geography content. In addition, you'll need A-Level Geography.
You'll also need GCSE passes at grade 4/C or above or recognised equivalents in English Language and Mathematics. We also need the QTS tests in Literacy and Numeracy to be passed, but these can be taken after interview.
The love of and competency in Geography is one of the most important aspects of being a good Geography teacher. You'll need to be enthusiastic about Geography and working with children.
All applicants are subject to a number of checks designed to maintain the integrity of the teaching profession. You'll be required to attend an interview, complete Professional Skills Tests and undergo DBS checks. You may also need to enrol on a Subject Knowledge Enhancement course.
