The programme offers students the opportunity to qualify as a teacher of children across the whole primary age range 5-11 years with an emphasis in either the 5-8 or the 7-11 age range; the University works in partnership with local schools for initial teacher education through an associate tutor system (teachers in school who act as mentors during school placements) which not only helps to ensure that courses are meeting the needs of schools but also gives students a sound appreciation of the profession; the intensive programme combines courses in principles and methods of teaching with practical school-based teaching placements and students are assessed on both elements.

Location

The University is just a 20-minute walk – or a short bus ride – from Uxbridge underground station, so it is a straightforward journey into central London. There is also a night bus that can bring you from central London to the edge of the campus. The town of Uxbridge itself, which still has buildings dating back to its time as a Georgian market town, is a thriving commercial and business centre. Its major shopping complexes, The Pavilions and the Chimes Centre, boast a wide range of shops, cafes and a nine-screen multiplex cinema.
