About Secondary Business Education, PGCE - at Nottingham Trent University (NTU)

Secondary teaching at Nottingham Trent University

This teaching degree provides graduates with the knowledge, skills and experience necessary to teach Business Education at secondary level. Time is spent in the University in lectures and seminars and in the classroom onplacements, ensuring that by the end of the course, trainees are confident professionals ready to begin teaching in secondary schools.

The award is offered at two levels. Both are recognised teaching qualifications, but the postgraduate award will allow fast-track entry to Masters courses:

Professional Graduate Certificate in Education

Postgraduate Certificate in Education.

The choice of which qualification to take will be made while on the course, successful completion of which will lead to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)*.

The course aims to develop an understanding of the specialist subject in the context of the National Curriculum. In particular, the principles involved in the teaching and learning of the subject across the full age and ability range and the professional values and practice, subject knowledge and understanding commensurate with the particular subject specialism. This includes how children learn and how they develop cognitively, socially and physically and the understanding, skills and personal qualities necessary for managing the learning environment.

All trainees undertake a module concerned with the wider context of schools and education. This develops the knowledge, skills and attitudes required for your first teaching post in a secondary school. It also builds a foundation for further professional development. Elements of this module include both whole cohort keynote lectures and seminars, many of which are led by mixed groups of trainees supported by tutors. This allows you to meet the Teacher Standards by making secure connections between issues in school and your own professional practice.

* The title of this award is subject to change due to an ongoing government consultation. You can check online for more information.
