Overview
The Master of Teaching (Secondary) builds on prior learning and develops advanced professional knowledge, practice and relationship skills relevant to teaching.
This course is offered to graduates who wish to teach years 8 - 12 in secondary schools.
Topics covered during the 2 years include specialist curriculum studies, school placements and a number of topics devoted to issues in education.
A Lutheran strand is available to students seeking to teach in Lutheran schools.
A research strand is available in the 2nd year to students with outstanding academic records.
We aim to educate students who appreciate the complex nature of a teacher's work and practice in ways that promote a socially just, democratic and ecologically sustainable world.
