Our suite of on campus modules is complemented by modules that will take you into school where you will practise as a student teacher.
Curriculum studies
As part of the programme, you will study curriculum modules that develop your pedagogic and subject knowledge within these areas.
Modules explore each subject within the core curriculum (English, Mathematics and Science), alongside modules that look at the wider curriculum (music, physical education, art etc.) to provide you with a thorough grounding in the full National Curriculum.
Professional studies
The modules of professional studies will explore the teaching skills that are required for the classroom, including behaviour for learning, planning for progression and assessing pupils effectively.
Advanced Study of Early Years Subject Study
Year One
The specialism module in semester 1 provides a grounding for early years practice. It considers the principles of the EYFS, how these can be embedded in practice and their relevance to KS1 teaching and learning. A visit to an outstanding setting allows for effective theory to practice links.
Year Two
In semester 1, early years student teachers explore the topic of child development and implications for teaching practice. Semester 2 focuses on the concepts of play and pedagogy and their value and place in primary classrooms.

Your third year allows you to investigate a topic of your choice related to early years through the final independent project.
