PGCE Secondary Computer Science with ICT at London Metropolitan University

Entry requirements

You will be required to have: a relevant UK degree, preferably grade 2.2 or equivalent; literacy and numeracy tests – these are university-based tests that you’ll be asked to undertake at your interview; a valid Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) certificate and Confirmation of Fitness to Teach (eg a London Metropolitan University Health Check) – you will be advised to apply for these after an offer is made; GCSE English and Mathematics grade C (grade 4 from 2017) or above (or equivalent)*; If you hold a third class degree, you may still be considered, particularly if this qualification is supported by a completed Master's degree or relevant work experience. We do make conditional offers (with strict deadlines) so it is important that you include all pending qualifications in your application. The University will assess any overseas qualifications for equivalence using a number of resources including our own internal guidelines, the UK ENIC and the Overseas Degree Table. We highly recommend the one-to-one tailored advice on eligibility and equivalency offered by the Department for Education Get Into Teaching service. *If you need to take an equivalency test for any of the required GCSEs, please sign up for A Star Equivalency or Equivalency Testing. They offer both GCSE equivalencies. Please be aware that you may need to undertake study towards the exam, either with the equivalency organisation or independently.
