DESCRIPTION
The STADIO Postgraduate Certificate in Education in Senior Phase and Further Education and Training Teaching will
equip graduates with educational theory and methodology to teach the required subject content knowledge and enable
them to demonstrate competence and responsibility as academically and professionally qualified beginner teachers.
The PGCE (Senior Phase and Further Education and Training Teaching) accredits a professional teaching programme
that ‘caps’ an undergraduate degree or an approved diploma. It offers entry-level initial professional preparation for
undergraduate degree or diploma holders who wish to develop focused knowledge and skills as classroom teachers in one
chosen subject in the Senior Phase and one chosen subject in the Further Education and Training (FET).
DESCRIPTION CONTINUED
To this end, the qualification requires a specific depth and specialisation of knowledge, together with practical skills
and teaching experience to enable successful students to apply their learning as beginner teachers in schools in varying
contexts.
The programme will build on subject knowledge content, together with the principles, practices and methods of teaching,
and workplace experience, to enable successful students to apply their learning as beginner teachers to implement the
National Curriculum Statements. They will have a wide range of theoretical understanding, competencies and practical
skills to deal with a diverse range of learners in schools in a wide range of learning situations and contexts. They will
reflect critically on their own practice and demonstrate initiative and responsibility in both an academic and professional
teaching environment.
The PGCE (Senior Phase and Further Education and Training Teaching) will allow the student who completes the
qualification successfully to be registered with the South African Council for Educators (SACE) as a fully qualified
educator with sound knowledge and expertise in one subject in the Senior Phase and one in the FET.
