Course Details

BA (Hons)Education (Secondary)

Course Description

Our concurrent degrees in primary education will appeal to students who wish to become more than a generic primary school teacher. The primary education degree will suit those who wish to study primary education alongside a specific subject or specialism (modern language, environmental science or early years). This means that primary education students will take the appropriate subject modules alongside education modules for the first five semesters of their programme. In the remaining three semesters of the degree students will study modules within education which draw upon their subject specialism.

Career outcomes

The great majority of our graduates enter the Scottish Government’s Probationary Teacher Scheme, which entitles them to guaranteed employment for one year as a newly qualified teacher in a Scottish Local Authority school. Of course, your degree and teaching qualification will qualify you to enter into a wide variety of other professional roles, such as corporate training and development, museum and leisure education, as well as other career routes less closely allied to teaching.
