How to apply
Read the following application process guidelines carefully if you are considering applying to study one of our teacher training courses.
PGCE Primary, PGCE Secondary and PGCE Further Education
Applications for PGCE Primary, Secondary and Further Education courses are made via DfE Apply.
When applying for one of our courses search ‘UCL’ in the ‘choose a course’ section of your application or enter the training provider code U80.
The application cycle opens in October each year and applications are considered on a rolling basis, therefore you are encouraged to apply as early as possible, as courses may close as soon as places are filled.
Once your application has been received it will be forwarded to UCL for consideration and applicants who are successful at the shortlist stage will be invited to attend an interview.
