Hi everyone,
I plan to apply for secondary math as an international student. I have IGCSE and also IB scores, but not GCSEs. Did any international student get UK ENIC equivalency? Is it needed? Thanks a lot and good luck on your interviews!

I have been applying as an international student for Primary PGCE, have an interview soon! They haven't communicated if they will require UK ENIC, but I have to bring documents of my secondary qualifications to the interview anyway.

If you do need a UK ENIC statement, you can get one for free from the DfE, you just have to call the Overseas Qualifications team.

Oh sorry for not clarifying! I meant how long does it take to get a response for whether you’ll be getting an interview?

I was invited to an interview within a couple days, probably depends on subject!

Hi sorry I just realised I hadn't replied to this!
I applied for secondary modern languages, and no, there was no confirmation email or anything right after submitting my application, just an invitation to interview a few days later :smile: hope all is going well!
