Entry requirements

Foreign applicants must consult the Global Admissions Team before submitting documents. The general master’s entry requirement is a bachelor’s degree or recognised equivalent, completed or expected by February 2027; confirm the international checklist, language criteria, prior-major requirements, attendance and visa arrangements for this specific programme. The guide requires a teacher certificate at Level 2 or above in its stated qualification system, plus at least three years of teaching experience before admission at the school level and subject matching that certificate; fixed-term teaching experience may count. Current employment as a teacher is not essential if those conditions are met. Confirm whether your country’s certificate and experience are accepted. The guide describes a conditional route to Level 1 professional counselling-teacher qualification after designated courses and the degree; the master’s award alone does not guarantee certification or recognition. The school selection chart assigns 80% to academic-document assessment and 20% to interview/oral assessment. Two or more adverse assessor decisions, or an overall selection score below 60%, can cause rejection. Confirm the current interview arrangements and required academic records, translations, authentication and category-specific documents. No place, visa, employment or professional-licensing outcome is guaranteed.

Intake

The 2027 general graduate admissions page lists rounds of 14–30 October 2026, 23 November–4 December 2026 and 11–14 January 2027, with a 17:00 close on that page and no explicit timezone. These are general-school references, not a confirmed individual foreign-applicant deadline. Foreign applicants must complete the required pre-submission consultation. The HTML page and PDF differ on how early recruitment may close and on some later result/registration dates; ask the university to confirm the applicable international schedule, current places and submission procedure before acting.
