Subject Knowledge Enhancement Course Content
Participants will begin the course by undertaking a comprehensive subject knowledge audit to assess their individual needs. This will be followed by a planned series of taught sessions, seminars and individual work tailored to the needs of the group to enable students to meet their own personal targets. To ensure good progress is being made, these will be monitored by the tutor and reviewed part way through the course.
As part of the course participants will be expected to write up their own learning diary to demonstrate their progress to meeting their targets. Opportunities for reflection on learning will be built into the daily structure in the form of a final plenary session.
How to Apply
You are advised to apply as soon as possible since there are a limited number of places on each course. Please e-mail Lynn Chapman for an application form.
