Course Overview

These placements will be in contrasting schools to provide you with a broad range of experience; they could be in the city, suburban or rural schools, in the independent or state sector.

You will be taught by academics who are leaders in their field and have years of experience themselves as teachers. We believe that teaching inspired by research both within and beyond the School of Education and backed up with extensive teaching experience provides excellent opportunities for our trainees to grow as teachers and reflective practitioners.
