UCAS Undergraduate personal statement

Can anyone tell me how to structure a personal statement for a BA (Hons) primary education degree with a QTS?

Hi there,

This type of structure works for most personal statements:

Paragraph 1: Write about your experience, skills and knowledge from school/college that relate to the course. Eg - any topics you've studied that relate, or book/podcasts you've listened to.

Paragraph 2: Responsibilities and contributions you've made at school. Eg. Mentor for younger students, tutoring

Paragraph 3: Experience and skills gained through work experience or volunteering.

Paragraph 4: Hobbies or interests that would relate. Eg. It could be that you play on a sports team and that has given you experience in team work, listening and communication.....

Paragraph 5: What can you bring to the University and course...

I hope that helps!
