The BSc (Hons) Mathematics with Education degree programme provides you with the extensive theoretical knowledge and practical skills in mathematics and statistics, as well as professional skills through work-based learning, to ensure you are fully equipped to meet the demands of being a Mathematics teacher in secondary (high) school.

 

The overall aim of the course is to allow you to develop the knowledge and skills required to teach Mathematics at Secondary School level.

 

You will study mathematics to Honours level. You will also develop your teaching skills in Years 3* and 4 by taking modules in Education and practical teaching placements in a school.

 

On successful completion of the course, you will have met the Standard for Provisional Registration. You'll be eligible to apply for provisional registration with the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) and entry to the Teacher Induction Scheme in Scotland as a secondary school teacher of Mathematics.

 

Your depth of knowledge across a broad range of topics will support the teaching of senior phase courses up to SQA Advanced Higher (or GCSE A-level) level.
