UCL PGCE - Commuting
I have applied for a PGCE at UCL and have an interview coming up, but would need to commute from Kent. Does anyone know if there are any partner schools either within Kent or south east London. I don't really want to commute for more than 1h 30 every day as I think that would be draining. It takes me about 50 mins to get to central London. Wondering if there are any options for me...

Hi! I know this is quite a few months late, but I'm looking into my commute too - I'll also be going from Kent into London! I spoke to them on the Welcome day, and it seemed feasible. There are a few placements around Orpington and on the way into Charing Cross, from what they were saying, so hopefully it will be okay for you too if you did end up deciding to do the course!
