Teacher Training 2020 Applicants Thread

When were you interviewed? They are supposed to have come to a decision within a specific time frame (I forget the length, it's on the UCAS website). It may be that UCAS has been updated but somehow the email hasn't come through, so might be worth logging into track to have a look. Check your spam/junk folders too.

Just over three weeks now. Have checked my email (all folders), the tracking system on UCAS, and the KCL portal - but nothing. I don't know whether to message them directly to try and find out more information, or to wait the '40 working days' from the point of submitting the application...

Hi everyone! Has anyone here had an interview with KCL for PGCE Secondary? If so, how long did it take for them to get back to you? I wasn't given a timeline for their decision, and it's been a good while now since I was interviewed (which I feel went well).I would really like to send a quick, polite message asking if there are any updates, or something I need to send, etc - but on the other hand, a couple of people have advised me NOT to contact them as apparently that could irritate them, and even jeopardise my application altogether?

I accepted a place at Edge Hill for secondary computing!

Name:Abdi
Location: Sheffield
Specific Course: PGCE Secondary Computing
Applying at Manchester Met University, Sheffield Hallam University and Huddersfield University

Offer accepted: Manchester Metropolitan University, PGCE Secondary Computer Science
A little bit about me,

Finished degree BSc Hons Degree in Business Information Technology at Leeds Beckett University back in 2018, after some time in industry I had undergone masters degree in IT Management at Sheffield Hallam University which is nearing its end after long 2 years of studying for it. I decided that it was time to consider a career in teaching after my passion in helping others and sharing knowledge.

Look forward to my current offer to study PGCE Computing in Secondary at Manchester Met this September, going through tests and course subject enhancement as part of my offer. Can't wait.

Hello - has anyone else applied to a PGCE/PGDE at any of these universities?:

Liverpool Hope
Oxford Brookes
Nottingham Trent
Edge Hill

If so, how long did it take for them to respond to your application? (i.e. invite you to an interview or offer you a place).

Thanks

Thank you!

I've accepted a teacher training place (PGCE and QTS) starting in September 2020. I was told that I would be eligible for funding. I'm doing my masters' this year and have taken out a post graduate loan. Now SFE have said I can't get any funding for my PGCE - are they just f*****g up again like they usually do or am I not eligible for PGCE funding because I've had a postgraduate loan? Has anyone else been through this?!
