Will I be able to teach with a combined degree?

Anyone who has read my previous threads will know that I was studying law but with a great deal of deliberation I have since decided to withdraw and study for a BA English and Film instead. English is a subject I excelled at and enjoyed at A Level and I also have a passion for film. Anyway, I won't bore you with the details, suffice to say I begin my studies in September.

I know that with the PGCE it will be possible to qualify as a teacher (upon successful completion of my BA) and I would ultimately like to teach English at GCSE or A Level but wondered if I would still be appealing to a school with BA English and Film?

Yes. The main hurdle is being accepted on a PGCE Secondary English course

Okay, thanks F30

Lots of schools do media studies which is usually taught by someone from the English department. Good luck
