PGCE Business Education

UCL (University College London)

The Business Education PGCE prepares you to teach across the 14-19 age range, helping you develop the professional skills and attitudes to teach business in schools and colleges, as part of both academic (A level and GCSE) and BTEC courses. Where student teachers also wish to teach Economics, support will be given both at university and within placement schools. You will understand how business/economics is taught in schools, how pupils learn and make sense of the evolving nature of business/economics. This is reflected in the range of business related courses that are now offered by schools, sixth forms and colleges, with the focus in some instances on entrepreneurship, work skills and new business technologies. You will be joining one of the largest Business Education PGCE courses in the country, allowing you to benefit from a team of tutors with a wide range of expertise of business, both inside and outside of the classroom. You will also be able to develop strong peer networks, share ideas, resources and advice amongst your cohort of fellow students.
