Overview
In partnership with attachment schools, we aim to encourage student teachers to reflect on the nature of Modern Language teaching; to recognise and appreciate the changing role of Modern Languages in the Secondary school curriculum, to be enthusiastic about Modern Languages as a curriculum subject; to produce language teachers who can foster effective language learning amongst pupils of all ages and abilities (11-18 years old) and produce reflective practitioners with a firm grasp of theory and practice and thus a dynamic template for future development over the course of their future careers.
All Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) courses at Liverpool Hope offer students the opportunity to combine a programme of theory with real world experience. The initial professional development focuses on what underpins the work of an effective and successful teacher, while school placements offer you the opportunity to put theory into practice.
Initial Professional Development (IPD): This part of the programme covers the general, more holistic aspects of becoming a teacher. It is largely lecture-based supported by discussion-based seminars with an assigned professional tutor. IPD develops the student teacher's knowledge and understanding of a range of key issues in education.
