We’ve designed this course so you can combine learning on campus with practical experience in the classroom. You’ll spend 26 weeks on placement in school settings. Whenever you need support or feedback, you can turn to your subject-specific tutors and school-based expert mentor. We’re here to help you become the best teacher you can be.
