It’s great that you’re considering Greenwich and doing further research on your options. Hopefully I can provide some background information on our PGCE in Primary Education and Greenwich in general.
The quality of our teacher training in Primary education was rated as "Outstanding" in the Ofsted report for Initial Teacher Education 2016. Ofsted found that "Headteachers unanimously agree that when newly qualified teachers from the University of Greenwich are employed, they 'hit the ground running'. They are very much the first choice for employers in the local and wider London region."
Here’s some other stats for you to consider: Complete University Guide 2020 Greenwich improved 13 places in the overall rankings this year, with our Student Satisfaction (4/5) and Graduate Prospects (70.2/100) both ranking higher than those of Goldsmiths (3.88/5 and 58.1/100 respectively). Sunday Times Good University Guide In the figures published yesterday we have improved by 16 places (84th) and student satisfaction with both teaching quality and the student experience continue to rise.
