Graduate Certificate
This course is designed to support the professional studies of current (and often out-of-field) teachers in the secondary teaching areas of Mathematics Education to further their knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge and practical skills that support their practice as Mathematics teachers in secondary school contexts. Graduates of this degree are supported to move into new areas of teaching beyond those recognised through their initial teacher education degree.
The course allows currently qualified teachers to expand their career opportunities and move into a 7-10 mathematics teaching role.
