Teacher Training

Thank you for visiting our page, Whitefriars School is proud to be one of the lead partner schools for Teach West London. Please visit their website here. About our courses | Teach West London

At Whitefriars we offer a number of different routes into the wonderful career of teaching, the two main ways are either a salaried or unsalaried route. Please see below for details:

Salaried

Salaried courses are most suited to applicants who are already working as unqualified teachers or teaching assistants or applicants who have at least 3 years of relevant work experience. If you pursue a salaried route, you will be employed by a school. Your Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) fees will most likely be paid by the employing school. Although if you opt for the QTS & PGCE route, you may be required to pay the PGCE fees.

Non-Salaried (fee funded)

If you choose a non-salaried route, you must pay course fees and will not earn a salary whilst training to teach. Applicants can apply for a student loan, regardless of if they have had one for other postgraduate training. Applicants may be eligible for a scholarship or bursary to train to teach certain secondary subjects.

If you would like an initial conversation to discuss the options on how to train to be a teacher and how you could work with us at Whitefriars please email office@whitefriars.harrow.sch.uk  with the subject line teacher training.
