Turn your passion for maths into a rewarding career! Motivate the next generation of students with a PGCE in secondary mathematics.

 

Our PGCE in Secondary Education (university based) with QTS* Mathematics prepares you to become a professional, creative and reflective teacher. The course includes two school placements, university-based workshops, plus extensive support in the form of online materials. During your training, you will investigate how to address common errors and misconceptions through pedagogy. You will also improve your core subject knowledge and explore how your skills relate to teaching. Our lectures delivered by experts in their field will help you widen your individual skills, expertise, and background knowledge in your subject specialism. We'll build on your natural flair, so you successfully engage with young students.

 

“Subject tutors are credible and knowledgeable in their fields. Additionally, an extensive range of expert colleagues, many of whom trained at the university themselves, contribute to the delivery of the programme. Trainees are given ample opportunity to put their learning into practice through the ongoing school-based element of their course. This ensures that trainee teachers make a highly confident start to their careers in teaching.” (Ofsted, 2023).

 

We believe that Initial Teacher Education should go beyond skills and teaching routines to foster strong values and a strong commitment to the well-being of pupils in the widest sense. Social Justice is an important driving-force behind the course.
