Program overview
A three year honours degree in primary education leading to Qualified Teacher Status, covering the full primary age range across Key Stages 1 and 2, with extensive school based placement.
The five to eleven route is the broadest of the three QTS specialisms here, and the most widely applicable across English primary schools.
Bachelor of Education (Honours) - Primary Education with QTS (KS1/KS2, ages 5-11) is taught at the University of Gloucestershire, a public university in England with full degree awarding powers. Because the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 does not support a family move.
Candidates for Bachelor of Education (Honours) - Primary Education with QTS (KS1/KS2, ages 5-11) present a recognised Grade 12 or equivalent school qualification at 65 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 6.0 with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 is recorded at GBP 16,600. Gloucestershire charges no application fee, and Gloucestershire charges no application fee, and an India Scholarship of GBP 4,000 to 5,000 may apply to the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 automatically. The primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 lists two entry windows, the earliest in 2027. Apply Study Visa manages your the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: Grade 12 or equivalent at the percentage stated for this course.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; TOEFL iBT 80 with reading 20, writing 19, speaking 22 and listening 19; or PTE Academic 64. The Duolingo English Test is NOT accepted.
- Application and deposit: The University of Gloucestershire charges NO application fee, so applying costs you nothing. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
- Scholarship: Gloucestershire runs an India Scholarship worth GBP 4,000 to 5,000 for self-funded international students, awarded automatically with no separate application. A Global Scholarship of GBP 1,500 also applies, and merit awards run higher again. You cannot hold more than one university scholarship, so the India award is normally the one to pursue. Confirm the exact figure on your offer letter rather than assuming the maximum.
- Additional requirement: This course leads to Qualified Teacher Status. QTS routes can carry eligibility restrictions for international students. Confirm before applying. An enhanced DBS check is required for work with children or vulnerable adults, and it takes longer to arrange from overseas than most applicants expect. The Duolingo English Test is NOT accepted at this campus on any course. Plan for IELTS Academic, TOEFL iBT or PTE Academic instead.
- Work rights: the primary education QTS degree for ages 5 to 11 is a degree, so it supports a UK Graduate Route application giving two years of unsponsored work after you finish. No dependant may accompany you on a taught course.
- Student visa: Apply Study Visa prepares the CAS request, the financial evidence and the UK student visa submission with you.
