The PGCE in Primary Education enables you to become a confident and competent Primary Teacher who can enable children to learn effectively across the whole curriculum. The course also develops your understanding of the demands of the National Curriculum, the Curriculum for the Foundation Stage and other Government initiatives.
This PGCE will train you to teach children across the age-range of Primary Education. Our Primary Education course provides training in all primary stage National Curriculum subjects and equips you with the skills and knowledge to make the Primary Curriculum come alive for your students. You will develop an in-depth knowledge of the curriculum and will gain practical experience on placements in our partner schools.

The course structure is designed to meet the current and developing changes in primary schools in the United Kingdom. The module structure allows sufficient flexibility to address the planned governmental curricular changes, as well as reflect effective research based practice both nationally and internationally. It is vital that the entire primary curriculum is reflected across the course and is supported by a professional studies module and is closely linked to the professional placement. The course structure is designed to support trainees in the early stages of their career as well as providing a lasting support for their future careers.
The course is built around three modules which are closely mapped to the school-based training during the year.
