How do I become a Sociology teacher at either GCSE level or A level?

Question

I am currently going into my 3rd year on my BA Combined Honours Degree in Sociology with Psychology. I want to be a Sociology teacher in either secondary schools (I am aware that limited schools teacher Sociology at GCSE level) or in colleges. Could anyone advise me what course I need to do after my degree and possibly where does it?

Answer 1

You need a PGCE, why not go to yr colleges careers officer I'm sure you'd get better advice their.

Where does a PGCE course? my brother did his a Newcastle Uni, his girfriend did hers at Ambleside, but like I said ask yr careers officer cos they've got big books full of this stuff whereas I'm just blathering on rather than working so I'm only really kinda half helping anyway good luck ;)

Answer 2

Answer 3

unless your degree comes with QTS then you will need to study a PGCE afterwards.

then ask around, look on job websites etc. go into schools ....
