Would this qualification allow me to teach primary school children also is the exam online based ?

Answer:

Dear Melissa, To work as a primary school teacher in a maintained school (England and Wales), you must have a degree and achieve qualified teacher status (QTS) by completing a period of initial teacher training (ITT) , (initial teacher education (ITE) in Wales. You must also register with the EWC to teach in Wales. Independent schools, academies and free schools are permitted to employ teachers without QTS but, in practice, this is uncommon. The exam (assignment) is online based. Thanks
