Primary Education (5-11) With Recommendation For Qualified Teacher Status | BA (hons) in Leeds Beckett University

Course Details

Taking a creative, child-centred approach, your course will provide a solid grounding of all areas of primary education. With an emphasis on inclusion, creativity and critical reflection, you will learn the skills to ensure pupil engagement and achievement.

You will develop your critical thinking skills, coming to understand about your own teaching and learning style. You will question why other teachers work the way they do, and how you can learn from this.

In each year of study, you will undertake a structured placement in one of our partnership schools. You will also undertake shorter placements which are directly linked to your modules and which will allow you to focus upon particular aspects of practice. These include phonics, behaviour management and teaching pupils for whom English is an additional language. Over the three years of study you will have the opportunity to develop and hone your practice in a wide range of contexts.

As well as annual school experiences, you will have the opportunity to work creatively with children in a range of settings, including special schools, galleries and museums and schools in other countries.

You will also have the opportunity to specialise in a specific subject area, including English, mathematics, science, primary languages or physical education. Gaining a subject specialism will make you highly sought after by prospective employers.

We have been identified as one of the leading teacher training providers in England. We are one of only 25 universities to have had their initial teacher training allocations confirmed for the next three years, an acknowledgement by the Department for Education of their excellent provision.

RESIDENTIALS

At the start of the year you will go on a one-week group study residential. This will be a chance to meet new friends and take part in a number of challenges to develop your problem solving and team working skills. Activities can include rock climbing, gorge scrambling, mountaineering, walking, canoeing and kayaking alongside academic tasks.

Course Benefits

Your course begins with a residential experience, which allows you to meet your classmates and tutors and explore the potential of the outdoors for teaching and learning. As well as yearly school experiences, our modules take a theory-into-practice approach which enables you to work creatively with children in a range of settings including special schools, galleries and museums and schools in other countries.

One way that that you will be taught is through a problem-based learning approach. This means less reliance on lectures, with you instead being taught in the way you may in turn teach your class at school. For example, you will be given real-life problems to solve, such as how you would fill the walls of a year 1 classroom, and what you would hope to achieve through your choices.

We have a range of facilities available to help your learning, including specialist sport facilities, a science laboratory, an ICT suite and a Design and Technology building.
