Hi,

I have a BA and would like to get a PGCE or Grad Dip in Teaching - Primary, online.
Currently I don't live in an English speaking country, I live in Austria.

I know Sunderland Univ in the UK is offering this course online as 1 year full time with the practicum in an international school. Does anyone know of other universities that offer this course online?

My aim is to become a certified primary teacher and be able to teach in international schools.

Many thanks

If that's your goal, I think it would be best to do one on campus as you will get practical teaching experience.

I know and I would really like it too but, unfortunately, I live in Vienna, Austria, and I don't have this option here.
That's why I need to find an online program and do the practicum at one of the international schools here.

Just ask beforehand and get it in writing that it can be done at an intl school.

After you do a UK PGCE, you are only an NQT, you then have to do a further 2 years supervised teaching in a school. Are you able to do those 2 years in an international school as well?
