Why Subject Knowledge Enhancement?

The institute of Education at the University of Reading is delighted to offer the TDA

funded Pre – ITT Subject Knowledge Enhancement Courses. The courses last from 6

month to 1 year and offer people without subject specific degrees but good general

teaching qualities, the opportunity to develop their subject knowledge further

before commencing secondary teacher training.

Programme Aims

The course aims to develop students’ knowledge and skills required for teaching the

chosen subject in 11-19 secondary schools. Whilst there is considerable flexibility in

recruiting for this course, typically candidates will have an A level in their chosen subject

and a degree in a subject some way distant. Applicants must already have a place for

secondary teacher training conditional upon successful completion of such a course. By

the end of the course, students’ knowledge of their subject will be such that they will be

able to teach their subject to A level standard.

Programme Outcomes

The course will:

expose students to a variety of teaching methods, including exposition, guided

individual work, group work, investigation, private research, and others;

use a variety of assessment methods, including formal tests, extended pieces of work,

presentations, portfolios, (examinations will be used on the French course);

develop a critical understanding of students’ own learning processes with clear

implications for their future work with children.

Acquiring this overview will involve students in study commensurate in rigour with an

undergraduate degree.

Career Progression

The expectation is that the majority of candidates successfully completing the SKE

programme, and then the full PGCE or the School Direct programme, will be appointed

to a teaching post in the academic year following their ITT.

Why the University of Reading?

The Subject Knowledge Enhancement Programmes at The University of Reading are

run by our highly regarded Institute of Education, by the same academics who run

all of our ITT programmes. This means our SKE students are developing their

subject knowledge to a high standard with one of the best ITT institutions in the

country.

The Institute of Education is a major provider of teachers nationally and regionally,

offering PGCE Secondary and Primary, BA (Ed) and the Graduate Teacher Programmes

(GTP). The employment rates of our graduates are the highest in the University and one

of the best in the country of any ITT provider. After successful work in local schools

many of our students are offered local jobs. Most PGCE students achieve 60 Masters

credits as part of their course.

There is a strong Continuing Professional Development Programme and a large cohort of

PhD students, both local and international. Areas of research strength include school

improvement; inclusion and special educational needs; language assessment and

measurement; historical and comparative aspects of education and science education.

London Road Campus

The Institute of Education is based at the London Road campus. The London Road campus was the original campus of the University of Reading, gifted in 1904 by the local Palmer family, of the famous biscuit manufacturer Huntley & Palmers, it houses the impressive Great Hall where thousands of our students attend their graduation ceremonies every year. The cloister buildings have recently undergone a multi-million pound refurbishment to transform them into purpose-built spaces to continue the University’s long lasting tradition of delivering exceptional programmes in the field of education. Facilities on the campus include a Resource Centre with Library drop-box, a bar/cafeteria

and plenty of green space. The University’s Museum of English Rural Life is next door.

The main Whiteknights campus, where full library services are provided, is a short walk

away. For more information about the Library visit: www.reading.ac.uk/library

Centrally located in Reading, the campus is close to restaurants, bars, cinema and the Oracle Shopping Centre and is easily accessible by public transport. The campus is just 15 minutes walk from the railway station and is on many major bus routes.

French Subject Knowledge Enhancement

(12 Months) This one-year course is currently the only one of its kind in the country. It gives

graduates without a degree in French the linguistic skills needed to enter an ITT course

and then qualify as a teacher of that language across the 11-19 age range.

Applicants will:

possess a honours degree in any subject;

normally have an A-level or equivalent in French;

demonstrate the qualities of self-direction, persistence and the capacity to cope

with the demands of an intensive language course.

You should apply directly to us at any time for the SKE course. However, by the time the

course starts, you will need to have obtained an offer of a place on an ITT course (for the

University of Reading or any other initial teacher training institution), conditional on you

successfully completing the SKE Course (different providers may stipulate that you pass

the course at a certain level). Applications for a PGCE place must be made through the

GTTR; for school based routes, you will need to contact the initial teacher training

institution in question directly.

Programme Structure

The French Subject Knowledge Enhancement Course consists of 4 inter-related modules:

Maintaining Communication Strategies This module is the core language component of the French Subject Knowledge

Enhancement course and it will run throughout the length of the year, in two parts.

The module aims to extend and enhance students’ linguistic knowledge and skills, to a level that will equip them to teach the subject across the 11-19 age range in schools. There will be an emphasis on the development of grammatical knowledge and pronunciation.

By the end of the module students will be able to demonstrate competence in the

following areas, at a level at least equivalent to final year undergraduate level:

detailed comprehension of spoken and written texts;

spoken French, showing an ability to use oral French with fluency, accuracy, and

with an appropriate register and range of lexis;

free writing in French, demonstrating the ability to write fluently, accurately and

with an appropriate register and range of lexis;

detailed knowledge of French grammar and syntax;

detailed knowledge of sound-spelling relationships.


6 | P a g e

Classroom Language and Strategies This module covers aspects of the French language required for effective classroom

teaching. It will run throughout the length of the year, in two parts.

This module aims to equip students with the classroom language required to ensure that clear instructions are given, and to give them opportunities to practise this language in practical situations.

By the end of the module students will be able to understand and use in speaking and in

writing the target language required to deliver lessons which include clear instructions

and smooth transitions.

They will also be able to plan and deliver part of a lesson at Key Stage 3 and at A level

(KS5), using appropriate target language, clear objectives, and activities linked to the

objectives which show progression.

French Civilisation This module involves the study of key aspects of French civilisation: the French press,

the region of La Provence, French theatre (Molière) and French film (Truffaut).

This module aims to provide students with a better general knowledge and

understanding of French civilisation, and help them to relate this knowledge to

pedagogy. To develop their ability to analyse and engage critically with newspapers

articles, plays and film assessing the pedagogical value of these materials and resources.

It also aims to enable students to study a French region and produce both oral and

written presentations and to provide students with the opportunity to plan, teach and

evaluate a lesson on a selected aspect of the three chosen topics.

By the end of this module students will

have an understanding and knowledge of the French press, aspects of film and theatre, at a level appropriate for teaching in secondary schools;

be able to apply their analytical skills to review and critique newspaper and magazine articles both in oral and written productions, showing the ability to write and speak fluently, accurately and with appropriate register and range of lexis;

demonstrate the ability to form and articulate individual critical responses to literary work;

be able to organise and articulate a coherent written argument, demonstrating an ability to integrate theory with evidence;

be able to recognise bias and stereotyping in textual and visual resources.

The French Educational System This module gives students experience in a French school, developing their knowledge of

both the French language and of pedagogy.

It aims to improve students’ communicative skills and provide students with first hand

experience of the French school system. Students are also encouraged to research and

analyse one specific issue – of their choice - inherent to the school system and back it up

with proper documentation, interviews, surveys.


7 | P a g e

At the end of this module students will demonstrate competence in the following areas,

at a level at least equal to that required in the final year of an honours degree

programme:

critically reflect upon observations and first hand experience of a learning environment

produce a well-structured and clearly argued written report in French on these observations.

Teaching and Assessment

Teaching is by a variety of methods including tutor and student led seminars and

workshops, and feedback on individual and group research and presentation work.

Assessment of University based assessment tasks will involve meeting the stated criteria

for each task. A sample of submissions will be second marked and moderated. Modules

will be assessed partly through coursework, partly through examinations. Details are

given in each Module Description.

Successful completion of each Module is achieved by gaining a mark of at least 40%

against the stated criteria for that module. For Module 1 (EDFR1), students must

additionally pass each component part of the module at 40%+.

Post Graduate ITT Secondary Programmes

at the University of Reading

Our Initial Teacher Education and Training courses are based on the principle that

education is about active and meaningful learning through which students should

become analytical, creative and receptive to new ideas. By working with

Partnership schools and Accredited Mentor teachers on our programmes, we aim to

raise the standards of newly qualified members on entry to the teaching profession.

Secondary Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE)

A one year full-time programme leading to the award of a Post Graduate Certificate in

Education (with Masters level components) and Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) which

prepares students to work effectively with the 11-18 age range. Students specialise in one

curriculum subject and spend time learning in both the University and in partnership

schools.

The Secondary PGCE at the University of Reading caters for around 200 students each

academic year, it offers 10 different subject specialisms, and works with 40 partnership

schools. In 2007 OfSTED judged the course to be outstanding.

The ten specialisms are:

Art and Design

Drama

English

History

ICT

Mathematics

Modern Foreign Languages

Music

Physical Education

Science

The Secondary PGCE course at The University of Reading provides an excellent route into

teaching. Work in university and school contexts prepares you to work effectively in

school. The majority of trainees who complete the programme go on to take up teaching

positions, many of them in partnership schools.

The Secondary PGCE course is comprised of two integrated aspects:

School based experiences

University based programme


15 | P a g e

School Experience

An important aspect of the Secondary PGCE course is the strong partnership between

The University and local schools. The course content has been negotiated between The

University and partnership schools so that you can explore issues raised in The

University through your work with pupils in school, and you can consider issues raised

in school against a wide range of educational principles to which you will be introduced

in The University.

Periods of school experience are integrated into all aspects of the course, and you work

in schools throughout the year. Your work in schools takes a variety of forms including

observing experienced teachers, team teaching, working with small groups, taking

responsibility for the learning of whole classes and getting involved in all aspects of

school life. You will be well supported in school by a range of experienced and well

trained people including a subject and a professional mentor and university based tutors.

University Programme

The university-based programme is comprised of two main aspects:

Professional Studies

Subject Method Studies

Professional Studies

Professional Studies develops insights into general aspects of education essential for

entrants to the teaching profession, and gives consideration to the cross-curricular

themes, elements and skills which complement the teaching of your subject. It is taught

through workshops, conference days, and introductory sessions on major educational

topics which are then pursued in depth in small mixed-subject seminar groups.

Subject Method Studies

Subject Method Studies enables you to study the teaching of your chosen subject. This

includes consideration of aspects such as: the nature of the subject in the secondary

school; its place in The National Curriculum; what is taught; how it is taught; how it is

assessed; providing for young people with different backgrounds and abilities; teaching

in accordance with examination specification requirements; and using ICT effectively to

facilitate learning.

Work on the teaching of particular subjects is done in specialist groups. You are expected

to apply for a subject method course for which you can offer a qualification in the

subject matter, normally a degree awarded by an approved institution. Applicants who

do not have a complete degree in the subject they wish to pursue will be accepted on the

condition of completion of a Subject Knowledge Enhancement course, if the

interviewing tutor believes their basic skill in that subject to be of a high enough level.

(SKE courses are only available in French, Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics.)


16 | P a g e

School Direct

School Direct is a new route into teaching arising from the 2011 Department for

Education Strategy paper, ‘Training Our Next Generation of Outstanding Teachers’. It is

intended to help schools take a leading role in initial teacher training, while continuing

to draw on the expertise of accredited ITT providers such as the University of Reading. A

stated aim is to give priority to those subjects with the greatest need for new teachers,

and so it is particularly suited to those following SKE courses.

The School Direct training programme is available to all graduates using a funding

model comparable to that available for the PGCE, in which trainees may receive a

bursary from the Teaching Agency. For those with at least three years career experience,

and usually with at least a 2.1 classification for their first degree, there are opportunities

to join the School Direct (salaried) scheme, an employment-based route into teaching in

which the trainee is employed as an unqualified teacher by a school.

Further information about School Direct may be found on the University’s web site,

www.reading.ac.uk/education. In addition, we recommend that enquirers attend one of

our regular information meetings where they can find out more about the course.

Finance, Support and Further Information

Please note that all information given below was correct for the academic year 2011-12 and is

prone to change in the future.

SKE Finance

The Subject Knowledge Enhancement Course is fully funded by the TA; therefore there

are no fees to pay for the course.

The TA also provides a bursary to help cover students living costs whilst on the course.

This usually equates to £600 - £900 (depending on subject) per calendar month for the

length of the course (subject to change by the TA).

ITT Finance

Students will pay tuition fees for subsequent initial teaching training in the normal way.

For further information about ITT finances and support please speak to your individual

ITT provider.

Other Financial Support

Students on 12 month courses may be eligible for help towards living costs from the

Student Loans Company.

All SKE students are eligible to Council Tax reduction, subject to the usual guidelines.

The University also provides student financial support, with staff who can offer

additional financial advice and support.

Application Process

Please note that only British ‘home’ students are eligible for the Subject Knowledge

Enhancement course. (That is UK or EU/EEA nationality or who have been granted a

permanent right to remain in the UK). Applicants must also have been resident in the UK for

the 3 years leading up to the start of the course.

I would like to apply for the SKE Course and my ITT programme at the University of

Reading.

PGCE

Applicants wishing to apply for a PGCE at the University should simultaneously send a

PGCE application, through the GTTR website, and a SKE application, from the University

of Reading website (www.reading.ac.uk/education).

Applicants should make clear on the GTTR form that they would like to, or are willing to

take the SKE course, should the subject tutor think it necessary and are willing therefore

to defer their application by one year if necessary. (Applications made between July and

the start of the course, will not need to defer as they will already be applying for the

2010 PGCE intake.)

On receipt of the application forms, if the candidate is deemed suitable, they will be

invited for a joint SKE/PGCE interview. Unsuccessful candidates will be informed in

writing of the decision not to pursue their application any further.

With the letter inviting candidates to interview will be all of the information required

including, what to expect at the interview and details of how to get to the campus. The

interview will also provide unsure candidates with the opportunity to discuss with the

interviewing tutor which route into teaching would be most suitable for them, and

whether a SKE course will be necessary in their case.

After the interview the applicant will receive written confirmation as to whether they

have been successful. Successful candidates will receive two letters, one offering them a

place on the PGCE course, the other offering them a place on the SKE course. Applicants

must reply with all paperwork by the prescribed dates to ensure that places are kept for

them on all courses.

School Direct

Applicants for School Direct will apply to schools in the first instance. Places may be

advertised, including on the University web site, and schools will provide other

recruitment opportunities such as open evenings or even receiving direct approaches

from potential candidates. Selection by a school will be followed by a further interview

with the University. It will be necessary to make clear in the application for a School

Direct place that the intention is to be considered for a SKE course. As with successful



19 | P a g e

application to the PGCE, two offers will be made to suitable candidates, one from each

course. Both of these offers must be replied to be the prescribed date to ensure that a

place is kept open on both courses.

I would like to apply for the SKE course at Reading but my ITT programme at

another institution.

Applicants wishing to complete their ITT at an institution other than Reading must

typically first complete their GTTR or School Direct application form, again stating that

they are interested in first taking a SKE Course (and are willing to defer, if relevant).

Once a conditional place has been offered, applicants should then apply to the SKE

course using the application form on the University website.

Once the University has received confirmation from the applicants’ ITT provider of the

offer, and as long as there are spaces available applicants will normally be offered a place

without interview (except for French, where an interview will be necessary). Applicants

may be interviewed where there is competition for remaining places.

Conditional Offers

Any offers made by ITT providers (including The University of Reading) onto ITT

programmes, will be conditional on the successful completion of the SKE course. Some

ITT providers, or certain ITT subjects, may make the offer conditional on passing the SKE

course at a certain level, due to the intense nature of the ITT programme for which has

been applied. It is important that applicants understand the offer they have been made

before embarking on the course.

All offers onto our SKE programme are conditional upon the applicant’s acceptance of

their offered place at their chosen ITT provider. Failure to accept the offer they have

been made will result in withdrawal of any offer made for the SKE programme.
