Course info

Develop the knowledge, skills and classroom experience to teach secondary History. Our PGCE Secondary History course prepares you to teach History across the 11-16 or 11-18 age range. The course is designed to help you teach the National Curriculum, including GCSE and A-level. Successful completion leads to a postgraduate qualification and recommendation for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). University-based sessions give you space to reflect on teaching methods, develop your teaching style and engage critically with curriculum and classroom practice. We will also support you in developing your own teacher identity. You will learn with subject-specialist University tutors who have expertise as teachers and examiners, alongside experienced teachers from our partnership schools. Subject mentors will help you develop your subject knowledge and teaching approaches. This combination of university and school-based training helps you connect subject knowledge, educational theory and practical classroom teaching.
