Course outline

If you want the flexibility of multiple career options to teach in primary or secondary schools, the Bachelor of Education (Primary and Secondary) is the perfect degree for you. As both a primary and secondary teacher you will be able to inspire, nurture and engage young people in a positive learning journey. This degree will equip you with deep knowledge of critical ideas and pedagogical approaches to meet the diverse learning needs of students. With this dual-sector qualification, you will develop a breadth of skills in primary curriculum and one specialist secondary teaching area. You will gain a solid foundation in primary English and literacies, mathematics, humanities and social science, digital technologies, health and physical education and the arts. You will then shape your professional identity with a secondary specialisation. For more information, visit Bachelor of Education (Primary and Secondary) at ACU.

Other requirements

Students must complete mandated, supervised professional experience placements in educational contexts as continuous, full-time blocks to meet teacher accreditation requirements in Australia. Students must also undergo a criminal history check and obtain a Suitability Card as required by relevant jurisdictions before the first professional experience placement. For successful completion of all initial teacher education courses, students are required to demonstrate they have met mandatory approved benchmarks in both literacy and numeracy, evidenced through LANTITE (Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education). If you have not met the standard for either component after your first attempt, it is very important that you contact the Course Coordinator immediately to discuss your options.
