At the University of Reading, we recognise the importance of teaching children to explore, understand and make sense of their world through science. You will be trained to teach biology, physics and chemistry up to GCSE, and physics to A-level. How you’ll learn: Training to teach science at the University of Reading is an immersive experience, utilising many modes of delivery and participation, with active learning at its core. Your learning will take place through a series of practical seminars and workshops in purpose-built science laboratories, where interactive and discussion-based techniques will encourage you to engage, reflect and challenge. Throughout your course, you will: attend presentations by subject experts, work on tasks in groups, have individual tutorials, write assignments on aspects of teaching and professional studies, visit schools or other education settings, as well as museums and other sites of interest. You’ll participate in activities designed to help you plan your teaching effectively and imaginatively. You will also discover how to evaluate your skills, particularly in terms of the quality of learning achieved by pupils.
