Study Details: 1 Year Full-time
On a Primary (School Centred) PGCE you will train in a school as you work towards your Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) recommendation.
You will be based in one of our partner schools from the start of your course. You will gain a thorough understanding of the current primary and early years curriculum, including core and foundation subjects. We also emphasise the importance of meeting the individual needs of children from diverse backgrounds.
There are academic sessions both at university and within school which are designed to integrate theory and practice and develop a deeper pedagogical knowledge.
Taking the School Centred route for your PGCE means that you will be based in one of our Lead Partners schools. This means that the majority of your time will be spent at your partner school, while still attending academic sessions between school and university. You will graduate with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
