Pre-Master's and Pre-sessional English

UCL Pre-Master's and Pre-sessional English courses are for international students who are aiming to study for a postgraduate degree at UCL. The courses will develop your academic English and academic skills required to succeed at postgraduate level.

UCL works in partnership with around 300 primary schools to enable Primary PGCE students to develop the knowledge and skills they need to become a primary teacher. We welcome a wide range of students each year to the Primary PGCE course and traditionally under-represented groups are particularly encouraged to apply. Our cohorts are typically very diverse, reflecting school communities across London.
