Description:

This course leads to the award of Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) for the 11-to-16 age range, which qualifies you to be a teacher in secondary schools in England and Wales. Where possible, we also give you the chance to gain experience in the 11-to-18 age range. It is of the utmost importance that all young people get the chance to learn at least one language to a high standard. That's why schools will always need highly-skilled language teachers to help pupils develop valuable, lifelong skills – and why trainee language teachers can benefit from the highest range of training bursaries.

Community languages teachers will find east London, with its diverse, multicultural population, a particularly rich learning ground. As well as French, German and Spanish, the languages taught in east London schools include Italian, Russian, Mandarin, Japanese, Urdu and Bengali. Your teacher training will help you discover how to open young people's eyes and ears to the beauty of the language by exploring its uses in business, everyday life and culture.
