Faroese Teachers School

The Faroese Teachers School (Faroese: Føroya Læraraskúli) is a college in Tórshavn in the Faroe Islands, which became part of the University of the Faroe Islands on 1 August 2008.

[1] Since 2008 it has offered bachelor's degrees in general and specialized education; before 2008, education students did not receive a BA.

The school's four-year program in general education qualifies graduates for teaching positions in primary schools and preschools in the Faroe Islands and Denmark.

Gregers Joensen and Óli Niklái Skaalum were members of the first graduating classes, and later many prominent persons attended the school.

Today the school is part of the University of the Faroe Islands[1] and is also affiliated with the Faroese Research Council (Faroese: Granskingarráðið).
