Holyrood Campus
The one-year programme is the Scottish route to qualified teacher status. We aim to prepare you for the range of roles that teachers are expected to play: a competent, reflective classroom practitioner; a collaborator who contributes to the wider informal curriculum of the school; a subject specialist and curriculum developer; and a teacher in society, whether building strong relationships with parents or contributing to national policy debates.
The 36-week secondary programme is divided equally between University- based and school-based activities.
Campus activities will include lectures and workshops, with a focus on student-centred learning in a multidisciplinary setting. School activities will include observation and analysis of teaching and learning, through to developing and implementing your own teaching practice.
You must have a degree containing 80 SCQF credit points with 20 credit points from List A and 40 credit points from List B. 40 of the credit points must have been studied at SCQF Level 8 or above. You must also have Higher English plus Maths or Applications of Maths at National 5 at B.
List A technological subjects such as mechanical, electrical or electronic engineering, sciences, mechatronics, architecture, construction technology and building services.
List B design and graphic related subjects such as computer-aided design, graphic design, computer-aided design manufacture, industrial design and product design.
You will have to demonstrate that you have practical craft skills.
