What do our students think?

"The staff in the department are supportive and knowledgeable providing the group with a deeper understanding of maths through a variety of fun and
exciting activities."


Yvonne Griffiths - PGCE Secondary Mathematics

 

"I would highly recommend studying PGCE Secondary Maths at Chichester.
It is a great course and prepares you really well for your NQT year.  The staff
are all very committed and supportive.  The written tasks are thorough, but
not excessively onerous which allows you to concentrate on developing your teaching skills."


Paul Wilson – PGCE Secondary Mathematics
