Study Details: 1 year full-time
Business is fundamental to many aspects of our lives and although not all 14 – 19-year-olds will go on to work in business, all require a deep understanding of business knowledge and skills to navigate the world we live in.
Business teachers, in both the academic and vocational classroom and through extra-curricular activities, help prepare all students for life. Business is a subject that motivates and engages many students and you are in an excellent position to harness this enthusiasm, bringing the subject to life with well-chosen case studies that ‘hook’ students into learning.
The Leeds Trinity PGCE utilises the latest research to enable you to understand and develop the key pedagogical knowledge and skills essential for excellent teaching and learning in business education enabling students to appreciate its importance and relevance to them. This is achieved through rigorous, subject-specific professional training, up-to-date teaching practices and, most importantly, your specific needs as a trainee teacher.
Leeds Trinity University is committed to recruiting students with talent and potential and who we feel will benefit greatly from their academic and non-academic experiences here. We treat every application on its own merits; we value highly the experience you illustrate in your personal statement.
The following information is designed to give you a general overview of the qualifications we accept. If you are taking qualifications that are not included below, please contact our Admissions Office who will be happy to advise you.
A good honours degree (usually a 2:2 or above) with a significant proportion in Business. Please note that applicants with third-class honours degrees will be considered on an individual basis, and normally only if applicants have additional qualifications and/or significant relevant professional experience.
