Program Description

This nationally accredited bachelor of Education (Primary) is dedicated to producing future teachers ready to enter the primary education teaching profession.

A key feature of this course is the range and number of professional practice experiences offered, ensuring they can make the essential connection between theory and practice while building both professional and generic employability skills in real teaching environments.

Partnerships between ECU and over 1,000 schools and early learning centers allow for teachers to gain experience in diverse settings, including public, private, metropolitan, regional, rural, or remote schools, working with children from diverse economic, social, ethnic, and educational backgrounds. In the final year, you can apply for a place in the internship program at a school.

Teachers also have the opportunity to complete a formal specialization. This enables you to obtain a deeper and broader level of knowledge and understanding in a particular Learning Area.
