Hi Richard,
I have completed a PGCE 5-11 years SEN. I have spoken to another migration agent who has said this does not meat the criteria as AITSL states the SEN course must be in addition to the PGCE - she said: the checklist makes it clear that the Initial Teacher Qualification and the Special Needs Qualification are separate “ items” that need to be ticked, The requirement is for an Initial Teacher Qualification (minimum one year) PLUS a minimum one year SEN qualification.'
Please can you shed some light on this, it's really hard getting different answers from different sources.
