Teaching secondary-age children is your chance to share your passion for your subject and inspire the next generation.English as a curriculum subject is of vital importance. Not only does it help students to become clear communicators in both speech and writing but it also encourages them to analyse and appreciate the texts they encounter throughout their lives. By becoming an English teacher, you will be instrumental in enabling students to develop these essential skills. The course provides you with the requisite knowledge and experiences to plan and teach engaging and effective English lessons and to develop your capacity to assess learning as you begin your teaching career.On successful completion of this degree and having met the Teachers’ Standards, you will be recommended for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). All our PGCE Secondary courses lead to the award of a level 7 Postgraduate Certificate in Education.
