Will I go on placement during my degree? keyboard_arrow_up

These placements are full-time while you're on them, so you’ll get a real sense of what teaching life is like.

What is the difference between early childhood education, primary education and secondary education degrees? keyboard_arrow_up

In South Australia, the key differences between undergraduate degrees in early childhood education, primary education, and secondary education relate to the age group of students you'll be qualified to teach, the focus of your studies, and the teaching registration categories with the Teachers Registration Board of South Australia (TRBSA).

 

What are the inherent entry requirements? keyboard_arrow_up

The Australian Government has introduced the Literacy and Numeracy Test for all initial teacher education (ITE) students to ensure they have the high level of personal literacy and numeracy skills required of teachers.

The test is a national instrument designed to assess elements of an individual's literacy and numeracy skills and will be used to demonstrate that ITE graduates are in the top 30 per cent of the population for literacy and numeracy.

All students graduating from any ITE course in South Australia must have achieved the standard for both the literacy and numeracy components of the Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education (LANTITE) to graduate.

For further information, including registration details, please check the test administrator’s website at https://teacheredtest.acer.edu.au/

There are also important inherent requirements for this course and applicants are strongly advised to become aware of these requirements.  

View inherent requirements

Additional entry requirements keyboard_arrow_up

Applicants must complete a non-academic assessment task known as a Teaching Capabilities Statement as part of their application to demonstrate their motivation to teach, their strong interpersonal and communication skills, willingness to learn, resilience, self-efficacy, and strong organisational and planning skills. This involves a short statement in response to three set questions used to demonstrate suitability for study and work in the teaching profession.

Applicants who select this course as a preference during the application process will be directed to a page to meet this requirement.
