Course summary

On our three-year course, youll develop the professional skills you need to become a teacher, such as ways to teach reading, writing, mathematics and science, how to teach creatively across all curriculum subjects and strategies for developing learning plans for your pupils including how to plan effective lessons which promote pupil progress. Youll also develop strong research skills, learning how to interpret the latest educational research and incorporate it into your teaching methods. This is so you can draw on research to guide your teaching in the classroom, innovate your approaches to classroom management and find solutions to issues that may arise. Some of the concepts youll explore include how children develop and learn, including the influence of childrens backgrounds on their learning, theories that support teaching and how to overcome barriers to learning in children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. You will also reflect on your personal experiences and examine how these will shape your future teacher identity. Youll go on school placements in each year of study, gaining experience in teaching every phase from 3–11 year-olds, so that you can teach in Early Years through to Key Stage Two when you graduate.

Career prospects

After graduating, youll have the opportunity to work in a range of educational roles and settings, such as early years, primary schools, learning support, inclusive education and special educational needs and management.

We focus on generating primary education graduates that are skilled teachers, highly employable, resilient and knowledgeable. Our graduates are driven to make a significant contribution to education, are able to enhance the quality of learning for children and confidently take on roles within the leadership and management structures of schools.

Alternatively, you may choose to continue your professional development to masters or doctorate level. The faculty also offers master's courses, with awards in education, inclusive education and educational leadership.
