About this course

Gain the confidence to enthuse primary school pupils with a love of English while developing your own knowledge of literature with BA Primary Education with English Specialism (QTS).

This course will introduce you to a range of children’s literature that can be used to develop reading for pleasure in the primary classroom and consider what texts are within the context of the primary curriculum. Opportunities to evaluate the impact of stories and poetry on the development of children’s literacy will be explored, including consideration of heritage texts, contemporary fiction, and media texts. Throughout the course you will have the opportunity to investigate how these texts can influence approaches to literature in a primary classroom.
