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 the 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 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 themselves as teachers. We believe that teaching inspired by research both within and beyond the School of Education, and backed up with extensive teaching experience, provides excellent opportunities for our trainees to grow as teachers and reflective practitioners.Teaching the next generation of students is a rewarding way of using your talents and creativity to engage young people with languages and different cultures. The main purpose of the programme is to enable you to be a confident, competent and reflective teacher of Modern Languages, capable of making a full contribution to the effectiveness of a Modern Languages department in a British secondary school
Applications are welcome from students with good Languages qualifications at honours degree level. Your degree should be in the language you wish to teach. Currently we offer the following combinations, which reflect the languages offered in our partner schools: French, French with German, French with Italian, French with Spanish, Spanish with French. Other combinations may be possible but it is an expectation that you offer some French. Applications will also be welcomed from those with joint or combined honours degrees in which French is a major subject, for example French and Law, French and Classical Studies or French and Business Studies. In addition, we will accept applications from native speakers with honours degrees or equivalent. All applicants must have achieved a Grade C or equivalent in Mathematics and English Language at GCSE. You may apply without these qualifications, but if you are successful at interview you must have passed them by the start of the course. Special tests in lieu of GCSE Mathematics and English are available for Secondary candidates who are offered conditional places but are lacking the requisite qualification.
