Our lectures delivered by experts in their field will help you widen your individual skills, expertise and background knowledge in your subject specialism. We'll build on your natural flair, so you successfully engage with young students.

“Subject tutors are credible and knowledgeable in their fields. Additionally, an extensive range of expert colleagues, many of whom trained at the university themselves, contribute to the delivery of the programme. Trainees are given ample opportunity to put their learning into practice through the ongoing school-based element of their course. This ensures that trainee teachers make a highly confident start to their careers in teaching.” (Ofsted, 2023).
