Summary
Enhance your skills as a professional educator and transform the learning opportunities of children worldwide with an online international teaching qualification that’s in high demand.
A Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) is a highly respected qualification, valued by international schools, that offers you the opportunity of an exciting global career.
Whether you’re an aspiring teacher or are already employed in a primary or secondary international school, this course will help you to build your curriculum knowledge, within a global context, by designing engaging and informative lessons and developing your delivery expertise. You’ll draw from inclusive practice, informed pedagogy and cognitive psychology.
You’ll also undertake an exciting action research project, allowing you to choose an area of professional development, apply strategies in the classroom and evaluate outcomes using the knowledge you’ll acquire throughout the course.
School-based study This course is delivered 100% online, so there’s no need to leave your country of domicile to gain your qualification. As our teaching combines theory and practice you will require access to a school and appoint a mentor for practice focused learning. See our placements section for further information.
Please note, this course does not provide Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) status. It prepares you to work alongside Department for Education (2011) Teachers’ Standards that define the level of practice expected of teachers from the point of being recommended for QTS onwards.
