Are you passionate about dance and want to teach in secondary schools or colleges? Our PGCE Secondary Dance degree prepares you to become a qualified dance teacher in just one year. You’ll be trained to teach your subject specialism of dance at Key Stages 3 and 4 as well as at A level (ages 11 to 19). At the end of this one-year degree, you’ll be ready to confidently begin teaching in a secondary school. This is achieved through a balance of study of the knowledge, skills and attitudes required by the teaching profession, and a focus on the development of your understanding of the role of the secondary school teacher. In addition, you will gain vital hands-on experience of working within the classroom through our 28-week placement programme, which will develop your confidence and competence to teach effectively. After successful completion, you will be recommended for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) so that you can begin working as a teacher in a secondary school.
