Primary Teacher Education (Hons) Oxford Brookes University

Overview

The Primary Teacher Education (Hons) programme at the Oxford Brookes University develops your individual expertise as a teacher. We provide experiences to deepen your understanding of how to teach effectively. And they will be underpinned by current and relevant educational research, and theory about how children learn. 

Your training will challenge you in ways you might not expect. But we will always be there to support you. We’ll get to know you well - and if you need help, you just need to ask for it. You’ll emerge with confidence and resilience that you’ll draw on every day as a teacher.

You’ll graduate with Qualified Teacher Status and specialist skills that can make a meaningful difference in children’s lives. 

Career prospects

You’ll graduate with skills, knowledge and confidence that you’ll draw on throughout your whole career. You’ll be confident in any classroom, and you’ll have techniques up your sleeve to support every child. 

You’ll have built great relationships with your placement schools. And you’ll have specialist skills - like wellbeing, or inclusion - that will set you apart at interview. 

You’ll be joining a pool of graduates who have a reputation locally for their creativity, skills and passion. Schools know Oxford Brookes students go the extra mile - because they love teaching. And this makes our graduates sought-after on the employment market.
