Education Studies and Mathematics

A key feature of Education Studies is a focus on you as a developing practitioner. You will be encouraged to develop a strong personal ideology of education and will be supported in the development of secure employability skills through our work-based placements. A number of core modules each year incorporate placements in schools or other education-related settings and carefully structured placement tasks will ensure that you gain valuable first-hand practical experience.

In addition to careers in Education, Education Studies graduates are well placed to work in the other education-related, health, social care, public information or communication sectors. The course provides good training for a role within the business, service industries, personnel, museums, galleries or charities.

Graduates of this course are highly marketable individuals; mathematicians are in high demand! Most of our students apply to join our primary or secondary PGCE courses here at BGU, however, you could choose another career pathway such Business and Finance, Science and Engineering, Research and Educational Management. Possible future careers for Mathematics graduates may include Engineering, Statistics, Lecturing or Research and development.

You will normally need 96 -112 UCAS tariff points (from a maximum of four Advanced Level qualifications). We welcome a range of qualifications that meet this requirement, such as A/AS Levels, BTEC, Access Courses, International Baccalaureate (IB), Cambridge Pre-U, Extended Project etc.
