School experience If you are applying for a teacher training course, gaining relevant classroom experience beforehand is essential.

Once you start a teacher training course, your previous experience will provide a foundation on which to build to link pedagogical theory to real-life practice in school.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud to work with a huge range of employers to offer you work placements, experience, industry expertise, and training opportunities. Many of our University Centre students go on to work for local, regional, national, and international employers, following the successful completion of their studies.

We will always try to deliver your course as described in this course guide. However, sometimes we have to make changes as set out below.

This is to ensure that students can engage with the very latest work within their subject areas. Staff also represent the University Centre on national and international subject networks and professional bodies, and are therefore fully equipped to prepare students for their chosen career.

Our key strengths are:

Most recent achievements:

•• Strong collaborations with employers through staff and student joint research projects

•• Research project into professional practice for early years education and social care with the Ministry of Education, New Zealand

•• Close association with professional bodies with research into comparative practice, for example the National Youth Association and the General Optical Council •• Research skills embedded in courses to give excellent preparation for graduate level work e.g. problem solving, report writing, evaluation, working independently •• Staff who are active in developing professional practice in their respective disciplines through publication and joint projects with employers e.g. education/teacher training, sport coaching, youth work, social work, ophthalmics •• Strong emphasis on the student learning experience with friendly, approachable staff who are highly qualified in teaching and learning.

We try to ensure that you have a range of options to choose from and we will let you know in good time the options available for you to choose for the following year. We will only change core modules for a course if it is necessary for us to do so, for example to maintain course accreditation. We will let you know about any such changes as soon as possible, usually before you begin the relevant academic year. On occasion, we may need to make changes to other aspects of a course, or how it is delivered. We will only make changes if they are for reasons outside of our control, or where they are for our students’ benefit. We will endeavour to let you know about any such changes as soon as possible (usually before the relevant academic year). Our regulations set out our procedure
