Welcome to the Institute of Education

Employment-based Routes Unit

This site provides information about the EBR unit programmes, and access to programme communities.

The Employment-based Routes Unit offers a range of vocational routes for people wishing to gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

We offer two programmes:

  • The Graduate Teacher Programme (GTP) is for graduates who want to continue working in a school while they train as a teacher. You will be employed by a school as an unqualified teacher and trained 'on the job' to gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Places on the GTP are competitive and are offered to candidates who meet our criteria relating to suitability for teaching, quality of degree and teaching experience. Your school should also meet our requirements for training people on the GTP. In order to find out more about our GTP, please open the documents below.

  • Please note that the deadline for the submission of application forms for our September 2010 start has now passed and we will no longer be accepting applications.  The following intake will be September 2011, the application process for which will start in January 2011.  We no longer run a January intake.

  • The Overseas Trained Teacher Programme (OTTP) caters for people from outside the EU who have a teaching qualification from their own country and want to gain QTS in England.

Please see below for an application form.

In order to be considered for a place on our Programmes you will need to be employed by a school. Advice on finding a school can be downloaded below.
