"This book is a timely aid for students embarking on what they may perceive as being the doubly daunting prospect of becoming a schoolteacher and engaging with Masters level study. I enjoyed reading it very much and feel that it is an essential aid to beginning PGCE students. I am very pleased to recommend it to students and their tutors on Masters level PGCE courses in Higher Education Institutions across the sector"
Dr Alison Jackson, ESCalate ITE Leader, University of Cumbria
"As a PGCE student, I found this to be essential reading. A highly comprehensive yet very accessible text, it will be useful not only to those considering doing a M-Level PGCE, but also as a survival handbook for those already on the course" Diane Troughton, PGCE student
"I was very impressed at the invaluable advice and support this book offers. It poses excellent questions that encourage personal reflection and offers helpful case studies to clearly illustrate ideas. It gives a complete picture in a clear, accessible manner"
Katie Pragnell, PGCE student
What is PGCE at Masters (M) Level and what can you expect from the course? How can it help you to develop as a professional? Postgraduate initial teacher training courses now offer a choice of routes to qualification, leading to either a postgraduate or a professional award. This book will both help students to select the route which is right for them, and guide them through making the transition to studying at M-level.
Designed to support students through the course, from induction to decisions about employment or further study, this book reflects the reality of completing a PGCE at M-level. Each chapter features:
- case study examples from both primary and secondary settings, which exemplify key issues;
- reflective activities to help students develop critical skills; and
- a questioning approach which enables readers to apply the text to their own specific context.
Covering reflective practice in school-based training, developing professionalism through work in specific subject areas, researching practice, improving academic writing, the process of getting a job and advice on continuing study, this book will be essential reading for PGCE students.
Keira Sewell is programme director of the Primary PGCE at Southampton University. Contributors to the book are members of the primary and secondary PGCE teams at the University of Southampton and the University of Cumbria.
