What is an equivalency test and how do I book it?

All applicants for Initial Teacher Training must have a GCSE grade C or equivalent in English, maths and also in science for primary courses. If you do not have one or any of these qualifications (or a recognised equivalent) you will need to book an Equivalency Test. Please note that if you have applied for a statement of comparability from ENIC you are not required to apply for an Equivalency Test, unless the qualification is not recognised as equivalent to GCSE grade C or above.

We will be offering our own Equivalency Tests to candidates for our courses at a much reduced rate, tests will take place on set dates between January-July and you do not need to have passed this before you apply, but you will need to pass before the course starts. Please contact us if you would like further information.

There are different options and other providers available, if you would like to explore a different provider, please contact us before booking anything, to ensure we recognise the equivalency test.  You will be able to choose a provider who suits you best, such as revision or examination only routes and the providers can help you decide on the most suitable option for you.
