Course Overview

Religious Education in UK schools is a rich and varied subject which allows pupils to consider big questions through philosophical, theological and sociological lenses.  You will play a vital part in enriching young peoples’ religious literacy and enabling their personal and spiritual development, and you will shape their ability to use philosophical reasoning to justify their own views. 

Every year we welcome a diverse cohort of PGCE students from all faith backgrounds and those with no faith.  You will be encouraged to consider the place of Religious Education within the wider curriculum and the importance of this vibrant subject and will have the freedom and support to develop your own approach to the subject and you own unique teaching style.

You will benefit from an experienced subject specialist tutor and highly skilled mentors in our partnership schools where Religious Education is highly valued and well taught.

General Eligibility

  • A good honours degree with a significant proportion in Religious Education, including degrees such as Philosophy or Social Sciences. If you are from one of these or another similar academic background you may be eligible for a fully funded Subject Knowledge Enhancement course which you must complete before starting the PGCE.

  • Commitment, attitudes, values and suitable personal and intellectual qualities appropriate to that of a secondary teacher.

  • The ability to read effectively and communicate clearly and accurately in spoken and written standard English.

  • The capacity to meet the Secretary of State's requirements for physical and mental fitness to teach. All successful candidates will be asked to complete a health assessment as part of the entry conditions to the programme.

Applicants with third-class honours degrees will be considered on an individual basis if they have additional qualifications and/or significant relevant professional experience.
