Congratulations on your offer

With everything on your doorstep, Edge Hill University will become your home away from home. With outstanding academic facilities, fantastic study spaces, peaceful rooftop gardens and plenty of green space. You’ll find your place within our welcoming community. We’ve recently been awarded outstanding by Ofsted across all three initial teacher training age phases, so you’ll have the highest quality preparation and support, whether you’re aspiring to teach in a primary or secondary setting, or stepping into a further education college.

Not only will you be joining our like-minded student community, but you’ll benefit from real-world experiences either whilst out on placement if you’re studying to be a teacher or whilst undertaking work experience modules on one of our exciting education programmes. We can’t wait to welcome you and show you how our informative teaching led by our research-active members of staff will put you at the forefront of both the practice and theory of education.
