PGCE Primary (3-7)
University of East AngliaNorwich Research Park, Norwich
Course overview
A knowledgeable and skilled teacher can profoundly shape a child’s life, both during their school years and beyond. Working primarily, in the 3–7 age range, you’ll play a vital role by providing young children with a foundation to their education and motivating them to be engaged and excited about learning in the early years. This is a crucial stage of children’s education, laying the foundation for everything that follows.
Teaching in this phase is both fascinating and intellectually demanding, as you develop your understanding of each child, create positive relationships and contribute to the enabling environments that lead to effective learning and development. Developed in close partnership with primary schools and Early Years Foundation Stage settings throughout East Anglia, our PGCE Primary (3-7) course is designed to help you become a confident and capable teacher who can motivate children and manage a class effectively.
