The Brunel PGCE in Secondary Education (Science with Physics) is designed to guide your evolution into a knowledgeable, self-assured, and inspired science teacher, empowering students to become scientifically informed members of society. As a secondary physics educator, you'll nurture and maintain students' enthusiasm for the subject as they progress through the physics curriculum. You'll spark and deepen their comprehension of how intricate and varied natural phenomena can be explained through fundamental concepts with universal applications. Additionally, you'll require solid knowledge of topics beyond your specialization, since you'll likely teach chemistry and biology content up to KS3 level. Our program supports this development by focusing on core scientific principles through lectures, discussions, and hands-on teaching practice. The demand for passionate, qualified educators who grasp society's expectations for young learners continues to grow. Educating children and adolescents while learning from them in the process offers profound personal fulfillment.

Career Prospects
A Brunel PGCE with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) endorsement represents excellence in teacher training, evidenced by Brunel's consistently high graduate employment rates and positive evaluations from alumni, partner schools, and Ofsted inspectors.
Brunel PGCE alumni frequently secure positions within our partner schools or at institutions where they completed teaching placements. This enables ongoing connections with former students, many of whom return as mentors for current PGCE candidates. The department also maintains a nationwide network of alumni holding leadership roles in schools across the country.
