"summary": "Want to make a difference to the lives of young people in the classroom? Train to teach in one year with our PGCE Secondary course. This course will enable you to become an effective, inclusive and evidence informed teacher. \n\n**Reasons to choose Kingston University**\n– This intensive, well-supported course prepares you to teach in the 11–16 age range and offers the opportunity to develop teaching for sixth-form.\n– Kingston’s partnership schools offer excellent opportunities for practical learning.\n– You will have personalised support from both the University and partnership schools.\n\nThis course combines theory and practice of education to prepare you to teach your specialist science pathway in the 11-16 phase as well as being able to teach across all science subjects. During the course you will develop your knowledge of how pupils learn science, how to plan effective lessons and practicals; and how assessment can improve learning and teaching in science. You will develop as a reflective teacher who makes informed decisions about how to teach science.\n\nYou will develop your knowledge of learning and teaching science through research-led innovative practice that will model new approaches to learning and teaching science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects.",
