You will pass the knowledge and skills you have developed during your degree and/ or industrial experience to the next generation to prepare them for the world of work or higher education.
Our full-time one-year Level 7 Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in Further Education and Skills Sector will equip you with the knowledge, skills and values needed to meet Occupational Standards for the Further Education and Skills teacher role.

You will be encouraged to develop your critical reflection skills and undertake original practitioner research to improve your own practice and offer the best learning experience to your own students. You will have the chance to critically analyse current policies and practices and adjust them to meet the needs of your students regardless of their educational, social, cultural and economic background.
Our PGCE develops reflective practitioners whose teaching practice is underpinned by evidence-informed pedagogies, and who are committed to inclusive practice and continuing professional development.
Why study Education at LSBU? You will gain the necessary knowledge, skills and values to meet the Occupational Standards. You will engage with effective evidence-informed pedagogies and will have the opportunity to apply those into your own teaching practice.

You will develop your digital skills and your understanding of sustainable development. The course will be offered on a blended learning basis to create a flexible physical and digital environment.
