Introduction

The Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) Secondary English is a one-year course that leads to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). You'll train to become an English teacher for the secondary age range (11-16). You'll gain 60 academic credits at master's level as part of the course.

Teaching is both a challenging and a rewarding career with a high level of job satisfaction. It is a great privilege, as well as a great responsibility, to play such a key role in young people's lives.

We focus on supporting our trainees to thrive, and we do this alongside teachers and mentors in school. We also facilitate you to collaborate with your peers, and to graduate with a ready-made, supportive professional network.

All our courses are future-facing and underpinned by a strong values base. Our provision directly addresses education for sustainable futures. We equip you to be able to work thoughtfully, creatively and successfully with your learners. At UWE Bristol, we're committed to training reflective, innovative, and adaptable teachers for the future.

Content

On this course, you'll be encouraged to investigate how you can help young people to learn. You'll analyse the dynamics of what happens when students talk together about an issue that concerns them and how they use talk to advance their own thinking.

Furthermore, you'll investigate strategies to scaffold this happening in your classroom. How best to monitor and assess the learning that takes place and identify targets to support your students' development will be important areas for discussion.

You'll be asked to read and to understand, analyse and evaluate a wide range of texts.

To develop expertise in your specialist subject area you'll:

  • build your subject knowledge of literature and drama from the UK and across the globe

  • read and discuss both influential and cutting-edge research to develop criticality

  • experience and practise a range of effective and empowering pedagogies

  • take part in workshops with expert teachers, academics, and practitioners across the field of English and Drama.

You'll be encouraged to develop your own subject knowledge for teaching supported by experienced university tutors with many years' classroom experience. We focus on principled practice, deep and rigorous subject knowledge, and purposeful playfulness.

You'll be supported to create an inclusive, energetic, exciting classroom environment targeting a diverse range of students.

You'll study the following modules:

  • Curriculum, Pedagogy and Practice (Secondary)

  • Becoming a Transformational Teacher (Secondary)

  • Professional Practice A (QTS)

  • Professional Practice B (QTS).

The University continually enhances our offer by responding to feedback from our students and other stakeholders, ensuring the curriculum is kept up to date and our graduates are equipped with the knowledge and skills they need for the real world. This may result in changes to the course. If changes to your course are approved, we'll inform you.

This award leads to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). The focus for achieving QTS is particularly in the practice modules. UWE Bristol has chosen Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) as our accredited provider for the QTS elements of the course. 

We work with SHU to provide high-quality courses and share excellent practice. Together, our teacher training will help you shape the future of children and young people.
