Dr Tim Lucas
Head of Programme PGCE Primary Part-time and Flexible
Routes
I work across all primary ITE programmes but am
Head of Programme for the PGCE Primary Part-time and Flexible
Routes.
I teach upon PGCE professional modules, with a
particular focus on preparing students for school-based
research.
A particular interest of mine is working within
the area of arts education. I teach upon art and design modules and
teach primary music within the PGECE programme and the
undergraduate performing arts module.
Research interests centre around the teaching of
art in schools, working in close collaboration with local artists
to provide students with ‘expert’ knowledge. I also have a keen
interest in Scandinavian Education Systems – the subject of my
Doctoral thesis.
