OVERVIEW
Our one-year Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) prepares you to teach the secondary school art and design curriculum for the 11-16 age range.
You’ll learn teaching methods through interactive workshops – we’ll teach you as though you’re a pupil in a school art class.?
This helps you to experience what it’s like to learn the same way as students and explore the different ways you could teach art activities.
You’ll have sessions across art, craft and design, from drawing to printmaking, ceramics to lens-based media such as photography.?
For specialist mediums, such as ceramics and papercraft, we usually organise a series of guest lectures, inviting artists with expertise in these practices to teach you.
And, you’ll share your specialist art and design skills with your group too (students from past years have shared skills including bookbinding and Photoshop™).
When you’re at Manchester Met, you’ll mainly study with your art and design group. You’ll consider how to plan lessons, reflect on your planning, look at ways to develop your teacher persona and understand how research can develop and influence your teaching practice.
You’ll spend at least 120 days on placements in a variety of schools, gradually increasing your involvement to become an expert practitioner.
You will normally have a minimum of a 2:2 undergraduate honours degree awarded by a UK university, or an equivalent higher education qualification. Your degree needs to support the subject knowledge requirements of the national curriculum for history. For exceptional candidates, particularly those with substantial relevant work experience in schools or relevant occupations, we will consider applications from those who hold a 3rd class degree.
