INTERESTED IN SCHOOL TEACHING?

The PGCE at Queen's is broadly aligned with the Northern Ireland Curriculum, preparing graduates to teach across the 11-18 year age range.

You will gain a postgraduate qualification and 'Eligibility to Teach' (referred to in some other jurisdictions as 'qualified teacher status', QTS). The programme combines university-based tuition, consisting of taught sessions and directed independent study, with professional placements in schools.

We are still accepting applications for 2024/25 entry for subjects where places are available. You should be advised that courses may fill up at short notice. For some subjects we hold a waiting list of successful applicants who may be offered a place should one arise.
