PGCE Education (Social Science)

Queen's University Belfast

The PGCE in Social Science is broadly aligned with the Northern Ireland Curriculum, training graduates to teach Social Science across the 11-18 year age range. The programme aims to develop your competence and confidence in the teaching of Social Science and in the general professional role of the teacher. Our PGCE will appeal to you if you wish to move into teaching and if you are a graduate in Social Science or about to graduate in Social Science. Extra places are reserved to prepare those who are interested in teaching their subject through the medium of Irish in Irish-medium schools. An additional certificate in Irish Medium Education (IME) is awarded in conjunction with St Mary's University College.
