Secondary Religious Education with QTS BA (Hons)

Are you interested in becoming an outstanding Religious Education teacher? Our PGCE Secondary Religious Education course is designed to help you develop a deep understanding of the major world faiths, and equip you with the skills and pedagogy of teaching.

You will explore religion as a modern and living phenomenon, and visit centres representing all six major world faiths to study their beliefs, practices, and texts. As you progress through the course, you will reflect on these experiences in greater depth, gaining expert knowledge in the subject.

Our experienced tutors at Edge Hill and expert teachers in your practice placement schools will support you to become a great RE teacher. You will learn creative teaching techniques and develop your own imaginative ways to communicate impartial and considered views on religion.

Upon successful completion of the programme, you will be recommended for Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), and will have gained the skills and knowledge necessary to become a great RE teacher.
