Teaching is inspiring, challenging and as unique as each child you teach. You have the privilege of opening doors to learning and to inspiring a new generation of young people. Teaching is a great responsibility but a very rewarding one. No two days are ever the same and you will never be bored!
This FREE 3-day taster programme will enable you to gain the knowledge and experience to make the first steps into the teaching profession.
The course covers:
The different training routes and how to apply.
Information about the National Curriculum, teaching, learning, assessment and the roles and responsibilities of members of the school community.
Career structure, pay and conditions of employment, and opportunities for further professional development.
We will also be able to put you in touch with the relevant course tutors about how to enrol on a PGCE course or other route into the teaching profession.
This programme is for students with an interest in any of the following PGCE subject areas (Primary, Secondary and/or FE teaching): Geography, Modern Foreign Language (MFL), English, Maths and Sciences.
The deadline to register is 09:00 on Thursday 25th April 2024.
