The Bachelor of Education (Kindergarten through Primary) qualifies students to teach kindergarten, preprimary, junior, middle and upper primary levels.
The award is granted after the successful completion of four years of full-time study and aims to develop professional knowledge, skills, dispositions and generic attributes.
The degree includes compulsory units studied by all students, foundation units taught outside the School of Education and the opportunity for students to focus on a choice of curriculum areas within customised units in the fourth year. In the third and fourth years, students may develop a focus that prepares them to teach in different kinds of settings, including public or private schools, city or remote schools, schools that draw children from differing social and ethnic circumstances.
