Our students share advice and reflect on their experiences on the PGDE programme at Moray House School of Education and Sport. PGDE Primary Isabel Braadbaart 'I know I will stay in touch with the friends I’ve made for a long time – not just because they are colleagues who share educational interests and values.' Carrie Leiper 'I have been lucky enough to work with great role models who have shown me the difference it makes when you go the extra mile for your students.' PGDE Secondary Chantal Gluting John Berry Jenny Rebecca 'The best thing about the teaching programme at Moray House was learning from the very supportive, experienced tutors and being a part of a diverse, friendly cohort of other students.' Stuart 'If I can instill a sense of curiosity in young people, a passion for sustainability and an interest in design culture, I will consider myself very satisfied.' Emily Bell 'I chose to come to the University of Edinburgh because the programme offered me a 1-year degree with equal parts university-based coursework and practical experience teaching in schools.' Tom Bird 'At Moray House, going to conferences and learning together has been especially rewarding. You are shown a world of possibilities for what teachers can do and be.' Andrew Broadfoot 'They know their subjects, they know how to teach us and teach pupils. And Edinburgh is a wonderful city.' Lizzie McGhee 'I feel I can be completely transparent about how I’m doing throughout the year, the highs and lows, and always receive a listening ear, encouragement and understanding.' Teaching abroad Some of our students have taken the skills they learned on the PGDE programme abroad.
