PGCE - SECONDARY - PGCE BUSINESS AND PGCE BUSINESS WITH ECONOMICS

Whether your background is in business or economics, these courses build on your strengths while developing your employability and skills to teach your specialist subject. Teaching is informed by current research and you are encouraged to engage in the literature and debates about education to maximize your development. Your two contrasting placements are carefully thought out and tailored to meet your development needs and subject specialism. You will be supported and challenged by mentors working in business and economics departments in partnership schools and colleges. The training prepares you to teach GCSE, A-Level and vocational courses. Additional opportunities include planning and delivering an enterprise day to younger pupils and a financial awareness day at a special needs school. Visits to an independent school and a college enhance your experiences further.
