If you have an interest in all aspects of science, but in particular the chemical and material world and enjoy investigating this in a practical setting, then our Secondary Education Chemistry course will suit you. Our course looks at the key ideas which underpin the teaching of science in schools today and the way children’s understanding of concepts develops. As a trainee you will learn how to teach Chemistry to pupils in the 11–16 age range within the secondary age phase, with additional primary and post-16 enhancements. You will learn how to develop skills, knowledge, and understanding for teaching Chemistry through a combination of university-led and school-led training.
You will have interest in all aspects of science along with a particular aptitude for chemistry, along with an ability to think creatively about presenting the subject to others in original and practical ways. Candidates will be expected to teach the whole science curriculum, but with a particular focus on materials and their properties. Above all, you will need a real commitment to the education of young people. Also you will need:
For example Bachelor of Arts (BA), Bachelor of science (BSc) etc. or similar . They are sometimes known as ‘undergraduate’ or ‘first‘ degrees.
