John’s guidance made a real difference throughout my application and interview process. He prepared me for the questions I would face, including how to explain the grades and age groups I teach, so I went into the interview feeling confident and well prepared. I am delighted to have successfully completed the interview and to be moving forward to the next stage of the programme. Thank you, John, for your expert advice, patience and support throughout.

I want to say a huge thank you to @John (IPGCE PGCE QTS IQTS MA) 😊 From day one, he’s been super helpful and very clear with the application process. He helped me choose the right certificate that actually fit my experience, and he really knows his stuff when it comes to UK government paperwork — from bachelor’s degrees to high school diplomas. 

He guided me step by step through the application, especially on what to write and how to present things properly, and honestly made the whole process much easier and way less stressful. 


There’s a lot more I could say, but I’m genuinely very grateful for all his help and support. And to everyone in the group — if John doesn’t reply straight away sometimes, please be patient. He’s always very busy helping many people here and really goes above and beyond for everyone. Thanks again, John! 😊

As a teacher from a non-English-speaking country, achieving QTS was a major professional milestone for me. Preparing the documents and evidence took considerable time and effort, but the process was manageable with determination and the right support. I received positive feedback and successfully gained QTS, which I am now looking forward to adding to my CV and using to pursue future career opportunities.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to you and the team for your understanding and patience. I’m so close to the finish line now! Completing my master's degree and hopefully obtaining my QTS in the same year would truly be a blessing. Thank you once again!
