I'm going to be a teacher!
Well I had an interview a couple of weeks ago to do a Primary PGCE course at Northumbria Uni.
I rang them up today to see if they had made any decisions yet and they said I have been offered a place on the terms that I get a 2:1 in my degree. I can't believe it - I am so happy. This means if I get a 2:1 in July then I will be on my way to becoming a qualified teacher in September.
I can't wait - really can't. If all goes well this time next year I will be almost finished my teacher training and looking for a job!
So just thought I would share that with you all - especially since there is a teaching thread now!

Congratulations on the offer and good luck in getting that 2:1 , I'm sure you'll have a great time being a teacher.
Have you applied anywhere else as well, or did you just apply to Northumbria University?

I have applied for High Force SCITT as well. Had my interview the other day - but still waiting to hear from them. I know I didn't do as well at that one though - but still fingers crossed!
Are you wanting to go into teaching?
Glad someone replied to my thread - 22 views and only one reply - that is just rude!
Yay, I'm so pleased for you!!

Congrats i'll think you'll be a great teacher! What age/subject do you want to teach?
The PGCE covers the whole primary ages, but I prefer little ones. I have done most of my experience in reception class - I adore the cuteness of them!
So hopefully when I finally get a job I will teach Reception and Key Stage 1 although anything will do me!
I want to teach Alevel or GCSE Mathematics. I'm in my first year of uni at Bham doing Maths. I have 2 options from September, I can either continue at Bham and finish my degree in 2007 and then do my PGCE or I can transfer to another uni such as Manchester MET and start a new 2 yr degree frm sept with combined QTS and then become a teacher by june 07.
I save a year but will it help me in the long run? Do i get a rated degree or do i become a teacher quicker?

Is the degree a totally different degree that you would do at Manchester? I don't know anyone who has done this so I am unsure which is best. Personally I would go for the quicker option just to get it out the way with faster.
I just did a 3 year degree in Early Childhood and Curriculum Studies and then now I'm going to do a separate PGCE.
Whatever is best for you really. Good luck!

Well it can't be as bad as Sunderland Uni which is where I am getting my degree from!
I really don't think they look at where your degree is from they mainly consider the classification of your degree (I think).
