Amazingly, I’m now officially half-way through my 3 year degree! What a landmark to reach! I must admit that I’m really enjoying the Second Year, though I am feeling the stress, and it now seems a little sad that next year will be my last.
However, I have decided to do a PGCE teaching qualification after graduation, as teaching has always been a career I have considered.
Though I thought I’d never say it, I have even entertained the idea of doing a Masters at some point as well!
So although I have completed half my time of my Undergraduate Degree, I think I will be spending more time at University than I had ever contemplated.
Hey, dear Blake, good to read ur new blog!
But what does ” a PGCE teaching qualification ” mean, like a certificate for teaching? PGCE stands for? Sorry I don’t follow.

Enjoy every day,

Hey,
PGCE means Post Graduate Certificate in Education.
It is a teaching qualification you can do at University after you have graduated. The course is one year long. Once you have completed it, it means you are qualified to teach a subject in schools and colleges.
I seached the PGCE the other day, and this website jumped out in front of my eyes. http://www.education.gov.uk/get-into-teaching/teacher-training-options/university-based-training/pgce
I guess u already knew it so…never mind…
Have a nice day!
