How does this page work?
Hi, I’m Kaol – welcome to my page. This page has been set up to provide information to anyone who is interested in a career in teaching. If you have a question for me or any of the other teachers on this site then please post a question on the wall. This page has been set up in association with the Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA) so there are also teaching career advisers available to answer questions about the practical aspects of getting into teaching – such as training routes and financial support.

It would be perfect if it could be that easy... I am a fully qualified MFL (Spanish and English for Foreign Speakers) secondary teacher. I hold a QTS since April. I live in London, but I don´t have any experience in a school. Just freelance teahcing. I have sent probably 1000 Cv´s, covering letters and application forms. NO ONE is giving me a job.
Any ideas?
Alex Reynolds Hey, do I need experience in a school to apply for a PGCE to teach in a primary school? Also do I need the experience before I apply or can I obtain the experience between applying and the course starting? Trying to get time off work but I've already used up all my holiday and wouldn't like my manager to know i'm leaving the company to go back to uni, thanks
Nadi If your a primary teacher do you have to specialise in one subject or can you teach everything?

Hi there
Wondered if you know whether a Primary PGCE qualifies a teacher to work in a special needs class? Thanks x

Holly Hi is there anyone on here who's looking to teach Geograhpy at secondary school level. I've just found out i've got an interview at Portsmouth to do my PGCE and i can't wait. Now i've just got to git another 15days work experience into my schedule. Not that over 2000 hours of classroom time doesn't seem to be enough for some people lol.

Hi, I am currently studying my third year Law (LLB) at uni and am graduating this summer, i wanted to go on to become a teacher @ a college and preferbly teach law. Would i also have to do a PGCE? or will i have to take on a different course. the only reason i am asking is because i have reasearched into a pgce and it ...seems to only relate to primary/secondary? has any body got any links to direct me to college teaching, thanksRead more

hi there, i'm a current undergrad student at goldsmiths university studying fine art with history of art, i would like to do a PGCE in art & design perhaps at secondary level or college level, do the levels correlate with how long your PGCE will take? Or are they taught differently if anything...or just that you simply... work in a college/secondary environment? Also, I'm quite interested in studying in the US, i'm not entirely sure of which state, but would my PGCE be valid over there? Or would I need to take another teaching course for that, over there, or here maybe? Thanks a lot!! And a great page you have here! :)Read more
RAAJ im a primary teacher and it is one rewarding job!!!!!!!!!!! so go for it.
