I would like to do the early years PGCE at Cambridge. But I have a young family and I don't live in Cambridge, I live about an hour away. I have spoken to them about this, and there are special allowances for people who aren't local sometimes. So the fact that I'm not local doesn't mean an absolute no.
After posting another thread about PGCE hours a year ago, I decided to wait until my kids were older as the hours seem too crazy and I don't want to miss out on my kids when they're little.
But, if you did one (especially interested to hear the primary / early years people's experiences), what were your hours like? And where did you do your teaching practice? Do they partner with any London schools? II really want to go there (if I get in anyway!) above anywhere else I've seen because I was really inspired by the set up and the staff.
