Program details

Overview

This postgraduate certificate prepares trainees to teach geography in secondary schools, with a focus on engaging young learners in the lower years of secondary education. Study covers how pupils learn, which teaching strategies suit the subject, and how to plan coherent lessons for a varied classroom. Training combines university sessions with intensive school placements, where trainees practise classroom routines, behaviour management and assessment alongside experienced staff. A small research project rooted in geography helps trainees connect their teaching to current evidence and reflect critically on what makes lessons effective. Graduates move into careers as subject teachers in secondary education, bringing their enthusiasm for geography to the next generation of learners.
