Further Education and Training PGCE
The Further Education and Teaching PGCE provides a formal teaching qualification for those wishing to work in the further education sector. This could include a college of further education, a sixth form college or an organisation such as a private training company.
The programme has an excellent reputation and was rated 'good' by Ofsted in our last inspection.
The programme is delivered through a partnership stretching across East and West Sussex that includes courses at the University of Brighton (Falmer campus), Greater Brighton Metropolitan College and East Sussex College Group.
If you already hold a degree, it is anticipated that you will graduate with a Professional Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), and there may also be an opportunity to gain masters-level credits. Applicants without a first degree will graduate with a Certificate in Education.
The Department for Education has announced bursaries of up to £26,000 for some Further Education Initial Teacher Education programmes for 2020 entry.
