Diploma in Education (Specialisation, Biology, Mathematics, or Physical Science) (70MAST)

The modular curriculum for the two-year modules in Biology, Mathematics and Physical Science follow a similar pattern as follows:

Year 1:

Subject content (3 modules)                       
Teaching methods (3 modules)                  
University Core Academic                          

Year 2:

Subject content (2 modules)
Teaching methods (2 modules)
Professional Development Placement (=1 module)

Placement tests may require a candidate to take an initial module Communication and Study Skills in English (UCE), before UCA. Professional Development Placement (PDP) ‘= teaching practice’ takes place in the last six months of the programme.

The content modules are based on IGCSE with many topics extended to HIGCSE.
