We offer students an exceptional training experience – if you’re looking for a lifelong, challenging and exciting career, teaching may be for you.
The programme aims to prepare you for entry to the teaching profession through placements, lectures, seminars, practical workshops and directed study. There is significant emphasis on the principals of teaching and learning with frequent reference to the latest research.
You will develop the skills and understanding needed to teach and assess the full range of core and foundation primary subjects for children aged 3-7 or 5-11. You will also develop the knowledge required to cultivate management and leadership skills.
A key focus will be to enable you to understand the teacher’s wider role, including through the holistic support of children’s health and wellbeing. The course gives high priority to developing your abilities of analysis and evaluation. You will be coached in inclusive practice so that all children, including those with special educational needs and disabilities, can be highly successful. You will work within a supportive learning environment where pastoral care of students is a priority.
An honours degree, normally a 2.2 or above. If you do not hold a 2.2 or above, we will be able to consider your application but will require additional information.
