Do you want to be a science teacher? The University of Stirling and Forth Valley College have teamed up to offer secondary education courses in chemistry or physics teaching. You could become a science teacher and inspire the next generation of young scientists. Our science education courses include: These courses offer a unique opportunity to become a GTCS registered physics or chemistry teacher in Scotland using a 2+2 model. The 2+2 label refers to a structure which includes 2 years of study to HND level and a subsequent 2 years of study to degree level. Our college partner is Forth Valley College, but it is also possible to join year 3 of the programme from another college. We’re accredited by the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS), which means that you can apply for provisional registration as a secondary teacher as soon as you graduate.
