School Experience Project Module (Q1139)

15 credits, Level 5

Autumn teaching

On this module, you’ll have the opportunity to work with a local Further Education college or secondary school. You’ll learn how to apply skills and knowledge from your degree in a classroom setting.

The module is co-run with school and college leaders and will help you design and deliver a project that supports and inspires the next generation of students.

On this module, you'll:

• develop skills in managing a project
• develop skills working in a professional setting
• gain insights into further and secondary school teaching.

Your learning combines sessions on campus with time in a school or college. On-campus sessions focus on practical strategies as well as pedagogical theory. In-school time gives you the chance to work alongside experienced teachers.

You’ll need a DBS check to take part in the module. We’ll organise this for you at no cost.

Contact hours and workload

This module is approximately 150 hours of work. This breaks down into about 22 hours of contact time and about 128 hours of independent study. The University may make minor variations to the contact hours for operational reasons, including timetabling requirements.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2026/27. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
