You can apply directly to the Primary Postgraduate Initial Teacher Education (ITE) programme through one of the University’s Lead Partner (ITE) Hubs.

These ITE Hubs are formed of local alliances of schools. Our programme is fully integrated, so students recruited by the University and those recruited by Lead Partners learn together.

This route might benefit you if you need to be placed in a particular location or wish to build a relationship with your placement schools before the programme begins.
