Summary
Successful completion of the programme leads to recommendation for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
Every school needs a mathematics expert. That could be you. Our PGCE Primary Mathematics Specialist with QTS course provides a high-quality teacher training experience. You’ll learn how to educate children aged 5-11 in all primary curriculum subjects, and craft specialist knowledge in teaching mathematics.
You’ll spend lots of time on placement in schools, where we’ll support you in meeting the Teachers’ Standards. You’ll gain the essential professional skills and knowledge for a two-year induction as an early career primary teacher and mathematics specialist.
Graduating as a primary mathematics specialist, you’ll be a role model and a leader to your colleagues. You’ll set an example for teaching in ways that are enriching, engaging and inspiring for young children.
**What you'll study**
The course is made up of four key elements. The first is academic study at Masters level. This will teach you vital academic and professional skills for teaching and analysing contemporary issues in primary education. You’ll also get to work on your specialist knowledge of primary mathematics.
The next element is the development of professional curriculum subject knowledge. You’ll learn how to make sure children progress with, and enjoy, their learning, become familiar with the National Curriculum for England, and develop approaches for teaching each subject. Teaching workshops will boost your confidence in managing classrooms.
You’ll develop subject and teaching knowledge through professional placements. This is essential for achieving qualified teacher status, and will allow you to spend a significant amount of time in schools and other educational settings. You’ll also collaborate with peers and tutors through online study. Finally, there’s the mathematics conferences element. You’ll attend events (sometimes scheduled at weekends) and engage with international and historical perspectives of teaching primary mathematics.
