Course summary
This teacher training programme prepares you to teach art and design in secondary schools. You are shown how to plan, resource, and organise art lessons, as well as how to monitor, record, evaluate, and assess students’ art practice.
Why study PGCE (Secondary) Art & Design at Goldsmiths?
- We will give you the tools you'll need to become a confident and committed art and design teacher. You'll learn how to make your classroom an inclusive space where you can support young people in developing their own forms of artistic expression.
- You will get to grips with the current theories and political issues affecting art and design education - and look at strategies for challenging them.
- As well as developing your students, we want you to continue to be a practising artist. You’ll participate in art and design workshops, lectures, seminars and tutorials.
- You will complete a variety of placements. During the autumn term you’ll be placed in a secondary school’s art and design department to observe, participate, and teach alongside experienced teachers. You'll also visit a primary school to develop an understanding of younger children’s work, and how the art and design curriculum is taught. During the Spring and Summer terms you’ll be placed in a secondary school, where you will build up your teaching experience.
