Overview
Our one year PGDE programmes commence in late August.
If you are already a graduate and are interested in teaching, the Moray House School of Education offers one year Professional Graduate Diploma in Education (PGDE) programmes.
These programmes are full time and 36 weeks in duration and commence in late August.
PGDE (Primary)
The PGDE (Primary) is a one year (36 week) programme of study commencing in late August. Its aim is to train students to become teachers who are sensitive, confident and adaptable, enabling them to take their place in a complex and evolving education system.
The programme seeks to train students for all stages of the primary school. It aims to provide a foundation on which they can build during their one year probationary period.
PGDE (Secondary)
The aim of the PGDE (Secondary) is to provide a route to qualified teacher status for graduates whose qualifications satisfy the requirements for entry into the teaching profession in Scotland.
It aims to produce reflective and competent teachers, sensitive to the demands of the pupils and the job, responsive to a changing education system and committed to continuing their own professional development throughout their careers.
