I have a PhD and I want to become a teacher
If you have finished (or are finishing) your PhD you could get into the classroom right away
Did you know you can start your teacher training right away?
Researchers in Schools (RiS) is a salaried, school-centred teacher training programme. If you are nearing completion, or have completed a Doctorate, you can apply as a trainee and gain QTS and ECT status by the end of three years. RiS graduates can then return to work in a higher education institution or continue to teach in schools. Most national curriculum subjects are available on the programme.
RiS is open to students completing, or who have completed, PhDs in:
- Physics or Chemistry
- Maths
- Engineering
- Computing
- Geography
- English
- Modern foreign languages (French, German or Spanish)
