QTS
Qualified teacher status (QTS) allows you to teach in state schools in England and may also allow you to teach in other parts of the UK.
It may also allow you to teach in the EU and EEA, though this could change after 2020.
If you’re planning to teach overseas, you should always check what qualifications are needed in the country you’d like to teach in.

About the course
School Direct MFL (French) at Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School:
The MFL (French) School Direct teacher training programme at Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School allows student teachers to train on the job in a supportive and well-organised environment. We pride ourselves on our personalised professional development programme which will enable you to develop your strengths as a leader in the classroom.
We work together with Christchurch University to offer Qualified Teacher Status with the option of an add-on PGCE qualification (Post Graduate Certificate of Education).
You will spend the majority of your time at Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School. A contrasting secondary school placement will be organised for a 6 week period, a primary school for 5 days and you will spend 15 study days at Christchurch University.
School placements
Your main base school will be Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School where you will spend the majority of your time training on the job.
A 6 week alternative school placement will be organised for you during your training year. This is to provide a contrast to your experience so far at Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School. You will also complete 5 days in a primary school to aid your knowledge of the prior key stage and can also be organised by the school.
As we work with a range of schools in our partnership, it is very easy to organise a placement for you in a contrasting environment.
Interview process
Potential applicants should apply through UCAS from October 2020.
Interviews will be held at Simon Langton Girls’ Grammar School for the post of School Direct MFL (French).
Fees
This fee is based on the figure for 2020-2021 and will be updated once the information for 2021-2022 has been released. Bursaries are available subject to eligibility.

You may be eligible for a loan while you study – note that you’ll have to apply for undergraduate student finance.
