Entry Requirements:
All applicants must meet the following entry requirements:
Degree
You must hold a bachelor’s degree with honours class 2.2 or above from a UK Higher Education Institution (HEI), or an equivalent qualification. UK ENIC, recognition and evaluation of international qualifications, can provide advice and a statement of comparability on the equivalence of overseas qualifications. For secondary programmes, at least 50% of the degree content must relate to the secondary subject applied for. If an applicant does not hold a degree in the training subject, they must have an A Level or equivalent in that subject. However, applications falling outside these criteria may still be considered on a case-by-case basis.
GCSE
English (Language or Literature), Maths and Science (primary programmes only) or equivalent qualifications at grade C/4 or above. A full list of accepted GCSE equivalent qualifications can be found here. We also accept equivalency tests from A Star Equivalency or BCU Equivalency Tests.
