Retraining as a physics teacher - Physics for Teachers (Graduate Certificate)

If you are a science teacher who would like to become qualified to teach physics, there is an online award course run by the School of Physics called the Graduate Certificate in Physics for Science Teachers. In this course, you will learn about the concepts that are covered in high school physics as well as developing a deeper understanding for yourself so that you can be confident in explaining and contextualising physics ideas for your students.
