Career progression for students who complete the level 5 diploma in education and training includes teaching in the post-16 tertiary education sector of colleges and community schools. However, to teach in the state school sector, students must become members of the Society of Education & Training (SET) and complete their Initial Teacher Training (ITT), which includes successful completion of a level 5 teacher training course, assuming they have already completed a level 2 (GCSE) Maths and English or equivalent. Upon completion of the courses, students will receive their Qualified Teacher Learning Skills (QTLS), which is equivalent to the Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and sufficient to teach in state schools and further education. For more information on the QTLS and how to achieve it after completing the level 5 education and training qualification, please refer to this link. Students may contact SET directly for more information about their requirements.

This course, the Level 5 diploma in education and training, is designed for teachers, trainers, and tutors working in various settings, such as state or academy schools, further education, adult and community learning, or work-based training within public, private, voluntary, or community organizations. It aims to equip trainee teachers with the necessary skills to teach effectively in various contexts and involves observing and assessing teaching practices, which is a requirement of the qualification. This course is suitable for trainee teachers who need to plan and develop schemes of work, deliver learning sessions, develop teaching and learning strategies, and practice assessment.
