Course outline

Launch a rewarding career in the education sector with a course that features embedded pathways, real-world opportunities, and extensive practical placements. This is an initial teacher education course usually studied over a period of four years. On successful completion, students will be eligible for employment in primary school contexts throughout Australia. In addition to building the professional knowledge and skills required to teach effectively, the course is designed to foster dispositions for engaging in and contributing to the teaching profession through a commitment to ongoing professional learning. For more course information, visit Bachelor of Education (Primary).

Note

To be eligible to graduate and therefore acquire provisional teacher registration, students will be required to undertake and pass the National Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education. This test, referred to as LANTITE, is administered nationally by the Australian Council of Education Research (ACER).

Other requirements

Students must be in possession of a current Positive Notice Blue Card (or equivalent “Working with Children” check issued in other Australian states or territories) to be eligible for placement in a school site. Students must be aware of the Literacy and Numeracy Tests for Initial Teacher Education (LANTITE) requirements. Both tests (Literacy and Numeracy) need to be successfully passed 7 months before undertaking Professional Practice 3. Students must meet the inherent requirements for teaching and must ensure they adhere to any requirements within the scope of teaching across the curriculum learning areas. For full course requirements including health requirements such as vaccinations, visit courses at CQUniversity.
