However, the school experience element of the course (24 weeks, which includes placements at two different schools) will be available across the region in partnership schools.

You may wish to carry out your teaching practice in a particular area and we will invite you to indicate your preference during the application process. In placing you, we will endeavour to place you in the area of your choice.

Therefore, you are invited to make an application as usual through the GTTR website. following the link to your subject choice at the Aberystwyth University provider site (or Bangor University provider site for a course available in Bangor).
