Overview

In Primary (7-11) (Key Stage 2) at London Metropolitan University 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.

What you'll learn

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.

We place great emphasis on sharing feedback with your peers and colleagues. You’ll complete a weekly reflection and contribute to discussions to further develop your understanding of the role of a primary teacher.

In the university-based sessions at our Holloway campus, you’ll learn teaching strategies and pedagogical techniques, as well as discovering the fundamentals of how pupils learn. These sessions will include collaborative projects and school-based projects with other trainees, gaining and practising the most up to date knowledge of the principles of planning, teaching and assessment.
