PGCE Secondary Information and Communications Technology

Gives you the opportunity to engage and challenge learners and maximise their ICT capability so they know when, where and how to use different ICT tools to solve problems and support their learning.

ICT holds a central position within the National Curriculum both as a subject and a cross curricular dimension. This reflects the importance of ICT which permeates all aspects of life – education, work, leisure and life at home.

This one-year programme provides an exciting opportunity to qualify to teach ICT to the 11-16 age range in secondary school. The second university phase will also support you in developing your understanding of planning, teaching and assessing the post-16 age phase.

Why study PGCE Secondary Information and Communications Technology?

As there is a nationally recognised shortage of ICT teachers, the employment prospects and longer term opportunities for promotion within the teaching profession are excellent.
