Our Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) for Secondary Education delivers top-quality training for aspiring secondary school teachers. This program aligns with the Department for Education's requirements for Initial Teacher Training.

The Secondary Education PGCE is structured to qualify graduates for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) - the essential certification for teaching in state-maintained schools.

Design and Technology incorporates multiple specializations, teaching design principles, practical creation, evaluation techniques, and technical expertise. Students work with various materials and methods, including resistant materials, control systems, CAD/CAM, textiles, food technology, and hospitality. Trainees focus on one specialization while gaining competency in others. The program prepares you to teach design technology to students aged 11-16, with opportunities for primary and post-16 instruction. You'll develop teaching skills through combined university-based learning and school placements.
