Course Description

The Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training (formerly known as the Diploma in Teaching in the Lifelong Learning Sector or DTLLS) is a standard qualification for educators in the post-16 sector. This course is particularly beneficial for individuals aspiring to become teachers, streamlining the process of developing essential teaching skills. Notably, this Level 5 teaching certification holds special significance as it qualifies individuals to apply for Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS) status, allowing them to teach in state schools in the United Kingdom.

Our fully online Level 5 DET course, accredited by UK OfQual, enhances both dual professionalism and teaching qualifications across various teaching contexts.
Although completion of the level 3 or level 4 courses is not a prerequisite for enrolling in our level 5 DET, it is mandatory to accumulate a minimum of 100 hours of teaching practice in an actual classroom by the completion of the qualification. Many candidates choose to initiate the course once they are in a teaching placement. In case you don’t have a teaching placement, you may refer to our Trainee Teacher Positioning Program whereby we offer assistance to fulfil the practical component of your course.

As long as you satisfy the minimum criteria outlined in the course FAQs, you are eligible to enrol in the level 5 course without delay as the course is available for commencement at any time owing to the self-paced nature of our delivery model.

The Level 5 teaching qualification mandates that your teaching observations must be conducted in a real classroom setting. Simulation is not permitted, and observations must take place in a real teaching environment.

For the observations required in this course, you have two options. You can either find an expert witness/assessor who holds a level 5 Diploma in Education or an equivalent teaching degree, or you can record your session and submit the video for assessment by our qualified assessor.

To successfully complete the Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training course, supervised by one of our authorised assessors, eight teaching observations are required. Additionally, you need to log a total of hundred teaching hours.

Each teaching observation must have a minimum duration of sixty minutes. It’s important to ensure that lesson plans are also designed to last at least sixty minutes; if not, additional teaching observations will be necessary.

No, it is not advisable. To facilitate a learning curve and enhance the learning experience, it is recommended to distribute your observations throughout the duration of the course. This approach allows you to consider observer feedback and make improvements in subsequent training sessions.

Yes, the Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training leads to the QTLS (Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills) status. Achieving QTLS qualifies you to teach in various institutions in the UK and is also highly esteemed internationally. For more detailed information, you can refer to the Society for Education and Training website.

Certainly, for the Level 5 DET qualification, a mix of both teaching methods is acceptable. However, it’s essential that at least half of the recorded hours come from group teaching, and all observations must not be based on 1:1 teaching. The required observations cover various aspects, including planning, delivery, assessment, differentiation, and other factors contributing to effective teaching and learning.
