What is a PGCE 14+ foundation course for and what should I expect?

There are no foundation courses for Teacher Training since you will need an undergraduate degree to be eligible to study, however, there are Undergraduate routes with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) which might be suitable to consider if you do not have an undergraduate degree. You can contact the Education and Teacher Training Team to discuss or browse the courses we have to offer, by searching the Education and Teacher Training subject area.

You can also chat with our staff directly every Wednesday from 2 pm - 4 pm and periodically throughout the working week.

Alternatively, chat with our current students who will be able to share this information with you and any other course-related queries.

Or book onto one of our Open Days or Course Advice Days to find out more and speak with the team.

At the University of Bolton, we understand our students have different requirements and we pride ourselves on the positive and supportive learning environment we provide. Being voted No. 1 for Student Satisfaction for the past three years (Complete University Guide, North West) is a testament to our approach.

We are proud of our work on-campus to ensure our students can enjoy #UniAsItShouldBe, COVID-secure.
