This Program is offered to school leavers and those with no previous tertiary qualifications who would like to become secondary teachers. The program also allows students who began as primarily language learners to transfer into the combined Education program. This combined program offers a sound qualification in secondary teaching integrated with two key learning areas from the ANU College of Asia & The Pacific. Graduates will develop in depth critical knowledge in their key learning areas and in the pedagogy of facilitating the learning of secondary students in these subject areas. In addition, graduates will develop sensitivity to the needs and characteristics of learners from Years 7 - 12; awareness of the social context and implications for schooling; understanding of educational challenges and issues, self-awareness including awareness of the influence of teachers' personal theories, values and modes of operation in the motivation of learning, knowledge skills and attitudes; theory and research on effective teaching practices and flexibility to enable constructive work in educational settings.

Admission Requirements

Admission to all programs is on a competitive basis, taking into account all relevant academic qualifications. If you hold more than one qualification, admission will be based on your overall record. Tertiary qualifications are generally weighted more heavily than secondary. If you have completed an approved tertiary preparation course or alternative entry scheme, you will be assessed on the results of that scheme alone, unless you have undertaken subsequent study.
