Introduction

Warwick Institute of Education is a leading centre for research and development in secondary education, and staff have research interests in many aspects of secondary school teaching as well as school management and leadership. Our Secondary PGCE courses provide a strong focus on developing your understanding of learning, your classroom skills and your ability to teach your subject. The course will prepare you to use ICT in your teaching and to take part in the wider life of the school.

The Course

The full-time course begins in mid-September and lasts until late June. All secondary courses have three elements:

• Subject studies look at all aspects of how to teach your subject, including planning, teaching, assessment and class management.
• Core studies programmes focus on working in classrooms and schools and on the broader context of teaching today.
• Professional placements provide opportunities for observation, practice and investigation in a wide variety of schools. University tutors and school-based mentors will work with you to ensure that you have access to the best possible advice.
