PGCE Open Days & Taster Events

Are you thinking about learning to become a teacher in academic year 2025/26 – or maybe just interested in what teacher education at Cambridge is all about?

Our Open Days will introduce the Cambridge PGCE. The University provides outstanding courses in both the Primary and Secondary age ranges and is nationally and internationally renowned for its personalised, innovative and high-quality approach to teacher education. Our PGCE students come from a wide mix of backgrounds, places and previous educational settings – but they all share our commitment to providing excellence to the UK state maintained school sector. They are also always in high demand and many quickly go on to leadership roles as their careers develop.

Come and discover for yourself what makes the Cambridge course different.
