Course overview

CRICOS CODE: 061012B

Becoming a primary school teacher is a two-step process. First, complete the Bachelor of Arts (Pathway to Teaching Primary), then complete your Master of Teaching. When you have successfully completed these two degrees, you'll be ready to take up a role as a qualified primary school teacher.

This program gives you a strong understanding of complex cultural, social and educational issues. You can choose from more than 20 majors, like Education, History, English and Philosophy,and is a great opportunity to explore a specialised discipline that will benefit your teaching career and sate your natural curiosity.

Look forward to hands-on experience at educational facilities as part of your program work, and emerge with the communication skills, creativity, capacity for independent thought, and adaptability you need to thrive in the real world.

As well as preparing you to become a primary teacher, this degree is a springboard to other careers outside of teaching, like communication and media industries, psychology and counselling, cultural and social policy analysis, writing and publishing.
