Dream of becoming a teacher? But wondering how to become a teacher without a degree.
Teaching is a rewarding and graduate profession and it will be easy to get into teaching if you have a degree and have completed a teacher training course (AET - Former PTLLS).
However, some educational schools are allowed to hire teaching staff who are not formally qualified or have no A-levels. So, there are many ways to get into teaching without going to university and it totally depends on the qualifications and experience you currently have.
You could take a course - Level 3 AET/PTLLS Teacher Training Online or Classroom-based, so that you can study for your degree and learn the teaching qualification required to work as a teacher/trainer in further education.
Even there is a range of jobs to consider in a non-teaching role that is open to non-graduates, such as teaching assistant roles. Teaching as a career offers opportunities for both graduates and non-graduates.
