About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Teaching covers working with a wide range of age groups, from children of primary school age (5 – 11) through to teenagers in secondary schools and young people and adults in colleges of further education and university.

In this webinar, we will explore:-

· An introduction to teaching in primary, secondary and tertiary education (tertiary, also known as further education, means teaching people after school leaving age)

· The entry requirements and the qualifications required to be professionally recognised as a school teacher

· The qualifications taken by teachers in tertiary education

· The learning pathways people take to get into teaching in schools and colleges

· Finance for the costs of teacher training in schools and colleges

· The pay & prospects for teachers in primary, secondary and tertiary education

In this webinar, we will be joined by a representative of a professional teacher training organisation who will talk about training for school teaching and how to get started

The webinar is run by a highly experienced careers adviser, and the session is relaxed and informal with plenty of opportunities to ask questions.

This event will be delivered via MS Teams.
