Kingston University’s Early Years Teacher PGCE course offers intensive specialist training for working with babies, toddlers, and preschool children. This course is fully funded by the government and conducted part-time while you work.On this course you will develop into an effective, inclusive, and evidence-informed teacher.

We have several teaching rooms designed to replicate real classrooms. Each room focuses on a specific subject, such as art or science, and is fully equipped with the facilities you need.
