Course Overview

We will support you in applying for teaching posts. In addition, the mock interviews we include as part of the course have directly resulted in job offers for our students.

We foster your continued relationship with Education at Leicester once you become an NQT by supporting your career development in several ways.

We offer a range of professional development opportunities for practicing teachers, and we offer Masters's courses focusing on Learning and Teaching, Educational Leadership, TESOL, and Applied Linguistics.

Our Ph.D. opportunities are very popular with those wishing to pursue a particular research interest at the doctoral level. We are committed to training excellent teachers during the PGCE and beyond. We are proud that so many of our students return to Education at Leicester for further study once they qualified.

All of our PGCE courses are made up of both campus-based sessions - which will give you a grounding in the principles of good teaching practice - and school-based placements, giving you a chance to apply your knowledge and experience to a wide range of classroom situations. These placements will be in contrasting schools to provide you with a broad range of experience; they could be in the city, suburban or rural schools, in the independent or state sector.

You will be taught by academics who are leaders in their field and have years of experience as teachers. We believe that teaching inspired by research within and beyond the School of Education, backed up with extensive teaching experience, provides excellent opportunities for our trainees to grow as teachers and reflective practitioners.
