The aim of a PGCE is to prepare the student to become a competent teacher. This is achieved through a variety of teaching and learning methods which are summarised below: Lectures • Tutorials: group or individually designed to advise in the preparation for school experience, curriculum projects and/or school based investigations. • Practicals: involving simulations, role-play, practical activities and school experience. • Workshops: designed primarily to allow students to examine the relationship between theoretical perspectives introduced in lectures and their main subject specialism.
