Course programme
London Met invests in you: from our purpose-built newsroom to our state-of-the-art superlab, we aim to create a stimulating and unique learning environment for our students. Our courses have received top marks from the UK's Quality Assurance Agency and many are accredited by a wide range of professional bodies. Our lecturers are leaders in their field: in the latest Research Assessment Exercise, over two-thirds of the University’s research output was judged to be world-leading, internationally excellent or internationally recognised.
We go the extra mile with our investment. We do this through our five-star promise, our pledge to connect our students with opportunities to boost their career skills. We put employability at the heart of our curriculum through helping you find placements, work experience and voluntary opportunities across a wide variety of organisations.
Course structureDuring University sessions, the course consists of the two modules:
- The Curriculum Studies module is the theoretical underpinning of the practice that students take into the classroom and as such provide access to the pedagogical knowledge and understanding required to effectively plan and teach well-structured lessons in language and literacy, mathematics, science and foundation subjects, and assess pupil’s progress in each of the these curriculum areas.
- The PiP sessions support the wider professional development of each student teacher. This programme provides discussion of the role of children’s rights and how this underpins effective learning relationships; understanding of different aspects of inclusive education; introduction to the whole school and wider children’s workforce and team work and collaborative discussion across different subject areas.
Both modules involve reflection on personal learning experiences and their application to the process of becoming a teacher and critical examination of education policy and practices as well as national and local data.
The modules support the two school experience placements where practical aspects of teaching are developed with the support of a mentor.
