"summary": "This one-year teaching course is a high-quality, grade 1 programme of professional education designed for candidates teaching outside of mainland England, leading to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and master’s level credits. Our course aims to develop you into a highly reflective practitioner, able to adapt and respond to changes in settings and international educational contexts, and able to take responsibility for your ongoing professional development in preparation for future leadership. \n\nThis one-year, 90-credit Post-Graduate course with iQTS (International Qualified Teacher Status) is a teacher training course designed for students embarking on a teaching career internationally with a focus on combining theory and practice across all course aspects through a blended learning programme.\n\nThe course provides a well-integrated blend of online and school-based learning opportunities that develop a values-based and evidence-informed approach to classroom practice in an international school setting. With reference the iQTS Core Content Framework, and taking account of the local contexts in which a student is teaching, the course will provide an appropriate training experience for those teaching in secondary (11-18) age phase. \n\nTrainees will be supported to understand the complexity of evidence and established views on effective learning in schools. Taught sessions and assessments will encourage critical engagement with evidence and the implications for personal teaching practice. \n\nThe Centre for Teacher Education is the University’s global-service provider for high quality teacher training and professional education. At its most recent inspection, the University of Warwick’s Centre for Teacher Education has been awarded “Outstanding” provider status by the British government standard (OFSTED).\n\nOur iQTS International programme was one of five inspected as part of the DfE iQTS pilot inspections and has been awarded grade 1.\n\nThe secondary iQTS programme is offered across the following subjects:\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Art & Design\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Biology\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Business & Economics\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Chemistry\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Computer Science\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS English\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Humanities\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Mathematics\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Modern Languages\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Physical Education\n\n\n- PGCE iQTS Physics \n\n\n**What is iQTS?**\n\niQTS is a UK Government-backed international teaching qualification which will be recognised by the Department for Education as equivalent to English Qualified Teacher Status. \n\niQTS is suitable for candidates who wish to train to teach and qualify outside the UK, including:\n\n\n- UK citizens currently working abroad who wish to start teacher training or develop their teaching career\n\n\n- Non-UK citizens who wish to begin teacher training or build on existing teaching experience\n\n\n- UK and non-UK teachers without QTS who wish to improve their employability in England and internationally with a UK government-backed and approved professional qualification\n\n\n**This information is applicable for 2026 entry.
