About the course

This full or part time course leads to PGCE (60 Masters credits), which includes KS5 and QTS. The course runs in Colchester and the surrounding area. Trainees have a mentor throughout the course and are very well supported in a long established training programme.

FEE FOR UK AND EU STUDENTS £8,900

School placements

There are two school placements throughout the year to enable trainees to access a range of schools and courses. Visits to special schools and primary schools are also included. Longer placements in special schools may be possible. NETT arranges placements in most cases although applicants can also do this.

Entry requirements

Qualifications needed

Applicants require a GCSE grade 4/C or appropriate equivalence in English, Maths and Science. A degree is also required. It is expected that an applicant’s degree will be related to the subject they wish to teach, although often we can train with a good A level and a SKE course. Please ask.

Fees and financial support

Financial support

You could be eligible for either:

a scholarship of £26,000
a bursary of £24,000

To qualify for a scholarship you’ll need a degree of 2:1 or above in Physics or a related subject. For a bursary you’ll need a 2:2 or above in any subject.

You can’t claim both a bursary and a scholarship - you can only claim one.

Find out how to apply for a scholarship. You don’t need to apply for a bursary - if you’re eligible, you’ll automatically start receiving it once you begin your course. Find out how you’ll be paid.

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

Find out about financial support if you’re from outside the UK.

The course fees for UK students in 2021 to 2022 are £8,900.
