The Curriculum Studies is a non–credit bearing module and links with the Professional Learning module (EDUM034). The lectures and seminars take place over 12 weeks during the Autumn term. Each week you will cover the subjects of English, Mathematics, Science,, Humanities, Art, PE, Music, ML and Computing. The module is designed to help to enable you to meet the Teachers’ Standards for QTS (2012). The lectures and seminars will give you an introduction to the underlying theories, knowledge and practice of each subject within professional contexts. Diagnostic subject knowledge audits are given in all subjects, and you are expected to address areas of weakness. Peer specialist support is encouraged both in and outside the seminar sessions.
You will undertake a limited period of school-based work during the Autumn term and an extended period of school-based work during the Spring and Summer terms, in which you will have opportunities to put into practice and extend those elements of the taught course.
