Too late for pgce application

hello,

I’ve just sent off my PGCE application. I applied for one university led route & two school direct routes.

Couldve had it sent at the start of the month, but my references were taking the piss.

Anyways, is it too late to be hopeful about my PGCE application & also, how long does it take for them to reply?

Thanks in advance.

I asked a similar question yesterday (for PGDE Maths - Physics Secondary in Scotland). The feedback I got from the 2021 Entry group was quite positive --- that is wasn't too late.

However, I think there are large dependencies on whether you are Primary/Secondary and the subject you choose to teach, if Secondary.

Lots of folk who applied by the deadline in January still haven't had their final feedback yet - interviews are still being booked/taking place.

Of course, this is all with respect to Scotland but I'd imagine it's a similar situation in England.

You could contact the institutions directly to ask? :smile:

Just received my first interview today! So I’m a little hopeful for getting an offer from my other two places now. Thankyou so much for your reply x
