Education and Training is the foundation level teaching qualification.
The Gateway Award in Education and Training is a foundation level teaching qualification.
This course is appropriate for anyone considering training to teach or train adults in the lifelong learning sector. The content of this course is similar to both level 3 and 4 PTLLS courses (as previously known).
We offer an instalment option for your balance payments, helping you with flexible easy payments.

We are an award winning school established in 1998, offering excellent tuition and aftercare, this is why when you book with us you know you will receive a first class course.
It does not matter which subject you wish to teach as this professional qualification will cover you.

Please note - This is an insurable course and fully recognised, however if you require the higher government/TQUK regulated course - you can find this here:
The other course we offer if required is a Level 3 Award in Education and Training will enable you to enter teaching employment and progress on to a broader teaching qualification. It is designed for teaching in the post-19 sector. It is suitable for both experienced practitioners who would like to secure an Ofqual recognised qualification as well as those new to teaching.
It is the same level as the Gateway Award in Education and Training however, this other option is Ofqual recognised (meaning it is an official qualification) and is regulated by TQUK. It is therefore seen as the more professional Level 3 teaching qualification.
The Level 3 Award in Education and Training (RQF) has been mapped to the relevant Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), National Occupational Standards (NOS), and sits on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), meaning that it is an Ofqual regulated qualification that will be recognised by most organisations (insurance companies, Schools, Colleges, private training providers etc.)
The Gateway Level 3 Award in Education and Training is professionally recognised and accredited by the awarding bodies FHT, INHA, The Guild and Towergate Professionals, meaning you can gain insurance and teach with this qualification (however some future employers/organisations e.g. Colleges may not recognise it and require you have an Ofqual regulated or equivalent qualification)
Both courses are professionally recognised and you can therefore gain insurance to teach with each. The Ofqual regulated pathway (RQF) will however be seen as the most recognised qualification in this field and the one you may want to do if you would like to progress on to the Level 5 Diploma in Teaching and Education.
You choose when to start, you have the flexibility to fit this in around your busy life and learn at your own pace with helpful guidance from your tutor when needed.
The deposit is taken off the course fee, you can pay the deposit on-line with our safe and secure online payment system with Worldpay or Pay Pal.

The Gateway course was very well structured and extremely easy to follow. I studied from the comfort of my own house at my own pace. The materials were clear and easy to understand. I would not hesitate to enrol on another Gateway course.

Tutor Feedback
The course I did was Award in Education and Training on line so I have not actually met Beth face to face other than via Skype, but whenever I emailed her her response was always the next day and even on the same day sometimes.When I did my micro teach and Beth observed she put me at ease and told me what I was expected of me and how the Skype micro teach worked, it did feel a bit odd and surreal but once I started it was fine. From the very first contact with her she was very encouraging and she gave me confidence to complete the course, which I passed successfully and am awaiting my certificate to drop on my door mat any day now. Thank you Beth.

What made you decide to book with Gateway
I did a lot of research into the different ways of doing my chosen course and decided to go for an on line option. I found Gateway as I was doing a Google search and after reading all the information which I found easy to understand and everything was pointed out and the comments from other students I decided to go with them. The price was also an incentive as it was cheaper than most I looked at.
