Primary Education (5-11) with Qualified Teacher Status

About this course

Teaching children in the primary years, between the ages of five and eleven, is one of the most consequential roles in society. These are the years in which children develop their foundational understanding of the world, their confidence as learners, and their habits of curiosity and enquiry. A primary teacher shapes not just what children know but how they approach learning throughout their lives. At Leeds Beckett University, this three-year full-time programme leads to Qualified Teacher Status as well as a degree, making you classroom-ready at the point of graduation. You will develop the academic understanding of child development, pedagogy, and curriculum that underpins excellent teaching, alongside the practical classroom skills that allow you to apply that knowledge with genuine confidence. Inclusion and creativity run through the programme: you will learn how to teach every child
