About the course

Our one-year Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) prepares you to teach the secondary school art and design curriculum for the 11-16 age range.   

You’ll learn teaching methods through interactive workshops – we’ll teach you as though you’re a pupil in a school art class.  

This helps you to experience what it’s like to learn the same way as students and explore the different ways you could teach art activities. 

You’ll have sessions across art, craft and design, from drawing to printmaking, ceramics to lens-based media such as photography.  

For specialist mediums, such as ceramics and papercraft, we usually organise a series of guest lectures, inviting artists with expertise in these practices to teach you.
