• You will need to arrange a minimum of 50 hours of teaching or training practice per year with students aged 16+. Teaching practice group sizes may vary, ideally with a minimum of 12 learners, but the majority of the teaching practice must be to groups of five or more learners*.

• An appropriately qualified Subject Mentor**.

*, **Teaching hours and a Subject Mentor are not requirements for the IET (the first module). However, experience of teaching does help to contextualise the course content, so applicants are encouraged to take advantage of any teaching opportunities.

This course has its own application, interview and selection process. If you decide to apply, please contact us to request an application form and further details. Interviews are normally held around May for the course starting in September, followed by a selection process before any places are offered.
