Postgraduate Certificate in Education (Physics)

The PGCE Physics provides a clear, thoughtful and critical introduction to teaching Physics, drawing on leading education research carried out at King’s. We work in close partnership with schools in designing, delivering and assessing our course in order to develop excellent, reflective classroom practitioners.
The course information sheet is a printable version of the information on this web page, which you can download here for PGCE Physics, and here for the PGCE Physics: School Direct Route.

Key Benefits:
Our physics course, judged Outstanding by Ofsted, is taught by one of the strongest teams of science education tutors in the country.
One reason that the PGCE was judged Outstanding is the strong research base which informs the course. In the last research assessment exercise, the department was rated as one of the top three in the UK.
We work in partnership with a wide range of schools in London and beyond, providing a unique opportunity to learn how to teach the full diversity of students.
We prepare students to teach outside the classroom: there is a residential field-trip and several other opportunities to make best use of what London has to offer the science teacher, from the South Bank to the Natural History Museum.
