English teacher with Creative Writing degree? Possible or no?

Hello!

I was just wondering if anybody believed it would be possible to get onto an English PGCE with a creative writing degree? Would a subject knowledge enhancement course be necessary? Thank you!

Hi there,

I believe you can get onto a PGCE course with a Creative Writing degree as it's an English based subject.

I know here at Chichester we offer lots of different PGCE options, but the entry requirements for PGCE Secondary English are a degree where 50% of the degree content is in English.

You should be able to find this sort of info on the uni course pages, but if in doubt I'd recommend emailing the admissions team!
