Open days

Take a campus tour, experience sample lectures and tutorials, and get all your questions answered by our admissions team.

School taster sessions

We work with schools in the local area to provide teaching taster sessions. This involves spending a full day at a school for the opportunity to:

  • attend an assembly;
  • discuss postgraduate teacher training with the headteacher and University staff;
  • sit in on a lesson.

Train to Teach

Our tutors attend the Department for Education’s Train to Teach events. These take place in Manchester and across the UK.

The events are for anyone who has a degree and interested in teaching.

They offer a great opportunity to get all your teaching questions answered.

Twilight sessions

Come to one of our free twilight sessions for information and guidance on:

  • putting together an application;
  • studying on the course;
  • teaching in the UK.

All sessions run between 4pm and 5pm in the Ellen Wilkinson Building. They cover both Primary and Secondary teaching.

Please email pgce@manchester.ac.uk to reserve your place. 

PGCE drop-in sessions

If you're unable to attend any of the above events and would like more information, please get in touch. We'll do our best to accommodate your request.
