Applicants should hold an undergraduate degree; an honours degree at 2:2 or above is preferred, though applicants without honours who show sufficient academic capacity through their degree transcript are considered. Before starting, applicants need English (Scottish Higher C or above, A level D or above, or GCSE English Language and English Literature at C/4 or above) and Mathematics or Applications of Mathematics (National 5 C or above, SQA Intermediate 2 C or above, Standard Grade Credit, or GCSE grade C/4 or above). The personal statement and reference should show readiness to become a primary teacher. Selection events are usually held virtually in late February or early March. Applications are made through the main UCAS scheme. PVG Scheme membership is required (Category 1 course); applicants who lived outside the UK for six or more consecutive months in the past five years need criminal records checks from those countries. No deferred entry.
