I stumbled across a post somewhere where someone mentioned he thought you could do a PGCE in the U.K specialising in TESOL. For the life of me i can't find the post again or a university offering the course.

Does it actually exist and has anyone done it?

Hi james_tesol


I'm not aware of a specific 'PGCE in TESOL' per se,

but the PGCE in Modern Languages is very common,

and many of these also contain TESOL course content.


The 2 links below provide a decent overview.

The TDA website also allows you to search

available courses & locations in the UK:

http://www.gttr.ac.uk/ (GTTR / Graduate Teacher Training Registry / contains a PGCE FAQ)

Thanks for the great help Kent!
