This Primary 7 to 11 course leads to Qualified Teacher Status and to the Master’s Level PGCE qualification. It prepares you to teach 7- to 11-year-olds, while also giving you an understanding of the full age range of primary education. You’ll learn all the skills you need to start teaching in primary schools, with expert guidance from our tutor team and with strong school placements to give you the experience to teach with confidence. By choosing to train as a teacher of seven to 11-year-olds at London Met, you’ll be joining a powerful partnership of diverse teachers and schools. You’ll undertake two school placements (in Key Stage Two) of 10 and 14 weeks, giving you excellent hands-on practical experience in two different schools. We place an emphasis on teaching in an urban, multicultural environment, which is ideal if you want to teach in a city setting. This PGCE course benefits from our convenient London location and will broaden your understanding of teaching in multicultural and diverse urban environments. Through study, discussion and teaching, you’ll develop an understanding of how children learn and the methods you can use to help them to effectively develop their knowledge and skills.
You will be required to have: minimum of a 2.2 UK degree or masters (MA/MSc), pass at literacy and numeracy tests, which are university-based tests that you will be asked to undertake at your interview, a valid Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) certificate and Confirmation of Fitness to Teach (eg a London Metropolitan University Health Check) which you will be advised to apply for after an offer is made, GCSE English, Mathematics and Science grade C/4 or above (or equivalent).
