Todays pupils get equal enjoyment from learning about how things work and as a secondary school physics teacher you will learn to build upon and sustain this interest as pupils journey through the physics national curriculum. As a Physics and Maths teacher you will initiate and develop, within their pupils, a secure understanding of how, through the ideas of physics, the complex and diverse phenomena of the natural world can be described in terms of a number of key ideas which can be applied universally. Our aim is to help you become a Physics and Maths teacher who approaches every lesson with content and pedagogical knowledge to spare. Knowledge you may not need to use but will give you confidence as a teacher and clearly demonstrate to your pupils that they can learn from you. The need for qualified, enthusiastic teachers with an understanding of the demands society places on young people has never been greater. The opportunity to educate children and young people, and learn from them in return, is immensely rewarding.Careers and your futureA Brunel PGCE with recommendation for QTS is a recognised symbol of high quality Initial Teacher Education (ITE). This is demonstrated by Brunels outstanding employment rates over time and feedback from Brunel alumni student teachers, our partnership schools and Ofsted inspectors.Brunel PGCE graduates have gone on to work in our partnership schools, and many in schools where they undertook a placement experience. This allows the department to retain links with former students and often they become school-based mentors for Brunel PGCE students. The department also has a network of alumni in positions of responsibility in schools across the country.
