Foreign Principal, Beijing

After 20+ years in international education, I wanted to formalise my experience with UK-recognised qualifications that are highly valued in UK school settings and international schools worldwide. The PGCE and QTS were the ideal pathway for my career goals, and John at Red Dragon Education made the entire journey possible. He guided me through every step of the application process and paperwork, turning what could have been overwhelming into something smooth and stress-free. 


Thanks to his support, I successfully achieved both my PGCE and QTS, and I am now about to begin my MA in Education – also under Red Dragon's wings. John's expertise, patience, and genuine care for the people he supports are second to none. 


I honestly don't think I could have done it without him. I would 100% recommend Red Dragon Education to anyone serious about advancing their career in international education. They are, without question, the finest in their field.

I had years of teaching experience but lacked formal credentials. the University’s PGCE allowed me to study without stepping out of the classroom. It connected theory with what I was doing daily and improved my confidence as a subject leader.

What stood out about the University’s PGCE was how directly useful it was. Every week’s task helped me reflect, adapt and improve. The tutor feedback was practical, and the university’s expectations kept me motivated. It’s more than just a certificate, this course gave me a foundation for long-term development.

I needed a UK-recognised qualification that didn’t require me to leave my school, and the PGCE offered just that. The academic focus was strong, but always linked back to real teaching. I now feel more confident in my professional judgement and curriculum decisions.
