Course summary

Our one-year Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) prepares you to teach the secondary school art and design curriculum for the 11-16 age range.

Youll learn teaching methods through interactive workshops – well teach you as though youre a pupil in a school art class. 

This helps you to experience what its like to learn the same way as students and explore the different ways you could teach art activities.

Youll have sessions across art, craft and design, from drawing to printmaking, ceramics to lens-based media such as photography. 

For specialist mediums, such as ceramics and papercraft, we usually organise a series of guest lectures, inviting artists with expertise in these practices to teach you.

And youll share your specialist art and design skills with your group too (students from past years have shared skills including bookbinding and Photoshopâ„¢).

When youre at Manchester Met, youll mainly study with your art and design group. Youll consider how to plan lessons, reflect on your planning, look at ways to develop your teacher persona and understand how research can develop and influence your teaching practice.

Career prospects

Most of our graduates go on to work as art and design teachers in secondary schools.

The PGCE programme provides you with 60 masters' level credits when you graduate. You could put these towards a masters degree to help you develop your career in the field of education.
