Our pioneering approach to professional education gives you time to develop as a secondary school teacher. With our four year teaching degree, youÕll be able to grow in confidence and critically reflect on your skills. Taking a one year conversion course to become a teacher doesnÕt give you this flexibility.

We enable you to study the practice of teaching (pedagogy) and two specialist subjects simultaneously. So, for example, you could study English and History to degree level alongside teaching.

YouÕll gain a research-informed degree, making you well equipped to enter the world of secondary education from the day you graduate. In the Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014), our Educational research had the highest quality of research outputs of any Scottish university, with 100% rated either world-leading or internationally excellent.
