Course summary

Train to become an exceptional qualified teacher of the subject you love the most. Learn to teach with York St John, in collaboration with one of our outstanding school partnerships.

We are proud that York St John University's heritage is anchored in teacher training and education, having being established in 1841 as a teacher training college. We have a strong record of contributing to our local and national teaching community.

Primarily based at your placement school, you will build your professional experience working in a school environment. You will have opportunities to engage with issues related to both your subject and education more broadly. We ensure that the training you receive is underpinned by knowledge and understanding of educational theory and current local, national and international research. Combining both theory and practice means that you will become an informed, reflective and critical teacher.

You will develop knowledge, understanding and skills in:

  • Planning, teaching and assessment of learning for pupils in the 11-16 age range
  • Managing and organising teaching and learning to promote inclusion for pupils from various backgrounds and with a range of individual needs
  • Ensuring pupils are safe and healthy
  • Promoting good progress in learning for all pupils
  • Appropriate subject knowledge to support teaching and learning
  • Using existing research and conducting your own research in schools

Many of our graduates are now mentoring current student teachers within partnership schools and in leadership positions.
