become a primary school teacher

i want to become a primary school teacher but i dont have any qualifications in it apart from part of my nvq 2 in childcare what should i do to get into this and is it expensive to study

I was accepted into uni today to do a bachelor of education, i am excited and very nervous

Well i have always wanted to do this in the future but i didn’t get the right grades to get into the course… so instead of studying to become a teacher i took up a degree studying HRM, once i finished that i was planing to do another 1 year course to train to be a teacher…

However circumstances have changed… i have a chinese boyfriend and obviously i want to be with him so my original dream has slightly changed not only do i want to be a primary school teacher but i also want to be a primary school teacher in China, teaching english as a foreign language. to kids preferablly young kids they start learning english in montasory there. Teaching montasory kids would be awesome.

But anyway i am on my way this summer i am doing a months course to teach english as a foreign language which is one step closer ^^

I am doing this for myself,but mostly for my kids because the school system here in Egypt is failing them.I want to be good at something.I want to finish what I’ve started.

I am half way through my second year and I think I am really struggling. I have just have the worst teaching practice ever with the most unsupportive class teacher. Received no help and now I have to do the placement again next year. I honestly think that this teacher had something against me, I knew that I wasn’t perfect but that’s why we have placements to learn from established teachers!!!! I had started to doubt whether I am cut out to be a teacher. I refuse to give up seeing as a received an execellent report last year from the SAME school.

Nearly finished my foundation degree in teaching and learning support, going into my 4th year as a teaching assistant which has given me tonnes of experience, fingers crossed i get a place on the ITT!

I’ve just finished my degree! I don’t know if I’ve passed yet but it was a long, hard three years. Totally worth it though to get my own classroom of kiddies. It is hard but I recommend to anyone training to stick it out, its a great achievement, and I’ve been told by many that there’s a lot of respect for anyone who passes their final teaching practice. I’m not gonna lie it does drive you insane but its an amazing feeling to get through it, so keep going!

Reasonably on my way… have done my first TP with a y5 group and thoroughly enjoyed it… now just rang my next TP school and its y1.. heck thats young… must be like herding cats.. so thats going to take some prep before January..

Well i am finally here!!! i have moved to manchester and have started my degree. it has been a bit of an overwhelming experience, leaving home, family and friends, but i am slowly getting used to it. the first week was pretty hard going as its a lot to take in. i moved into my flat and met the people i will be living with for the next year, then started university the next day and met my group. i just wanted to cry on the first day!(i kind of know what children must feel like on their first day at a new school!!!) but now that i have made friends and started the lectures, i am actually feeling a lot more positive. i know i really want to become a primary school teacher and the lectures are really great. we start school experience placements in november. i can’t wait.

Received a letter yesterday from the university where I really want to go to! I really didn’t think they would accept as I felt I was really pants in the written task! But it’s all good. I also received offers from two other Universities but was really hoping to get into Manchester. I am so excited, I start in september. I know I am really going to miss being a Nursery Nurse but I can’t wait to become a teacher!!!
