Teaching is never dull.
Whatever the age of your pupils or the subject you are teaching, there is always plenty of variety. In the classroom you will have the satisfaction of working with young people in the development of their thinking and other skills. You will be free to innovate and to work with other teachers in a coherent team to make your teaching more effective. You will also have the opportunity to organise extra-curricular activities to bring another dimension to your work. Teaching is a stimulating and worthwhile job and the aim of the PGCE Secondary course is to prepare you for a successful career in this profession.
