r/PGCE_QTS_UK_Sept2026

I started training to teach Secondary Spanish (PGCE with QTS) for 2/3 of the academic year. I didn't receive enough support from my first placement so I was better off leaving. luckily, I started my second placement a bit earlier and managed to complete it.

I was supposed to complete my training at the first placement. However, due to a lack of support, I left, and my training provider has asked me to find another school to host me as a trainee for the last few months of teacher training.

I have sought the help of agencies, and I sent emails out to various schools in and around Leicester

Apart from contacting schools directly, is there anything else I can do to find a placement and complete my training by October 2028?
