Routes to UK Teaching Qualifications & QTS

Are you an international teacher considering a UK teaching qualification or Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), but unsure which route is right for you? Join Teacher Pathways for a free, small-group webinar designed to help you understand your options and make an informed decision.

Sunday 25 October 2026
18:00 SAST · 40 minutes
Online · Free
Maximum 15 participants

What will we explore?

We'll compare four pathways:

International Qualified Teacher Status (iQTS)

Qualify for QTS from where you already teach, without relocating to the UK.

International Postgraduate Certificate in Education (iPGCE)

A postgraduate teaching qualification designed for international school settings.

PGCE with iQTS

Combine the academic depth of a PGCE with a route to Qualified Teacher Status.

Assessment Only Route to QTS (AO QTS)

For experienced teachers who can demonstrate the Teachers' Standards.

We'll answer your questions about

  • What's the difference between these routes?
  • Which qualifications improve your employability, and where?
  • What are the typical course fees?
  • What are the entry requirements?
  • When do programmes start?
  • How do you know whether you're eligible?

Why only 15 places?

We want this to be a genuine conversation, not another webinar where you're simply talked at. By limiting attendance to 15 participants, we can provide more individualised guidance, respond to your questions and explore the different circumstances international teachers face.

Learn from an experienced programme lead and designer

The session will be facilitated by an experienced senior lecturer and programme lead who has developed and led PGCE and iQTS programmes. You'll receive practical insights into how these routes work, what universities expect and what to consider before applying.
