Default PG Education Nottingham or Birmingham
 
Which uni offers a better PG Education course? Birmingham or Nottingham?

And also how frequent are the lectures for a postgraduate course?

Default Re: PG Education Nottingham or Birmingham
 
I have done the course at Nottingham. Consists of a lecture in the morning most Mondays and method tutorial groups the rest of the time. Course is Mon-Fri, expect to be there from 0900-1600 with breaks and the odd early finish (1500). After a few weeks you get your first placement which is Wed-Fri, which later moves to Tue-Fri. Again, lectures and tutorials on Monday.

The faculty of education is on the Jubilee Campus, which is quite a way (20-30 min walk) from the main University Park campus.

I have no experience of the course at Birmingham, so I couldn't comment.
