Our programme, which offers high quality training and support, will prepare you to teach in the 11-18 age range and is run in close partnership with schools. On the Biology Postgraduate Certificate Secondary Education course you will be challenged to develop informed and justified decisions about how you approach your teaching, in order to enable you to continue to develop over your career. The School of Education benefits from our unique collaboration with University of Birmingham School as well as a wide range of partner schools, including mixed comprehensive, single sex, religious and selective schools and sixth form colleges. The diverse communities we serve will enrich your experience on the PGCE Biology course.<br><br>The School of Education at the University of Birmingham has a long tradition of delivering teacher training courses.
