This also happened to me but with Gloucester. This is because they didnt think i was suitable for the Primary ed course. To me i think the Ed studies is a better course seeing that it will give you a more versatile degree at the end and not one that is locked to just one job.
It has been said already, but you can do a PGCE after the Ed studies, and from the email that glos sent me offering me a place on the ed studies, (apparently) employers like the PGCE route more than the primary ed route and plus it gives you more flexability on what you go into after.
While i was speaking to the ed studies at glos, he said that many come into the course wanting to teach, but at the end quite a few of those decide against it and go into something completely different. You will also look at what education is across the spectrum not just what the national curiculm entitles and how to teach it. Plus the uni has more input on what they teach and dont, whereas the primary ed has lots of stuff that needs to be taught so the unis dont have as much say in the course.
Rambled on a bit but hope this has helped in away, shape or form.
