On successful completion of all of our courses you will gain Qualified Teacher Status QTS). On the QTS + PGCE route you will gain a Keele University Postgraduate or Professional Certificate alongside your Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

### QTS or QTS + PGCE

As an innovation for 2023-24 we are offering a QTS only route. A comparison of the two options below may help you in making the decision about which route might be best for you.
