Primary Education Studies (Non QTS Accelerated Degree) - BA (Hons)

University of Huddersfield

This course is designed to help you develop your knowledge of primary and early years education, equipping you with the skills you’ll need to progress towards becoming a teacher in a primary or early years setting, or for other roles and careers within the field of education.

Completion of this course does not result in a recommendation for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), a requirement for becoming a primary school teacher. However, following successful completion of the course, Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) can be achieved through completion of a postgraduate teacher training course (such as a Primary Education PGCE).

If you aspire to become a primary school teacher, this course offers an accelerated route to completing an Undergraduate degree. In just two years, you’ll gain the requirements needed to apply for a Postgraduate teacher training course. From there, you can delve into further study and potentially look forward to a career in early years, primary schools, or higher and further education.
