Question:
What are the school placement arrangements for Primary PGCE students?
Answer:

Placements 

  • Semester 1  -  Four-week block placement
  • Semester 2  -  Five-week block placement
  • Semester 2  -  Eight-week block placement 

The Student Placement Unit will arrange your placements for the duration of your course with our partnership schools. These are normally confirmed in the first few weeks of your course. 

IMPORTANT Due to the numbers of students we have to place, you may be required to travel up to 90 minutes each way to at least one of your placements while on course. For more information, read our placement policy.
