Overview
Through Liverpool Hope’s well-established partnerships with schools in the region, you will be able to gain experience of teaching Music across the 11–18 age group and across a wide range of student ability. You will have the opportunity to work with Hope’s partners in the community, including the Liverpool Philharmonic Youth Choir. You will also be encouraged to develop your musical skills through performance and participation in workshops.
You will be supported by a team of committed tutors and mentors with experience in the Music teaching profession. Creative and practical activities feature strongly in the training programme and everyone is encouraged to develop musical expertise in new areas through subject sessions, external visits and peer teaching. You will have access to a wide range of resources for music education, including classroom instruments, music publishing software and audio and video materials.
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.
