Overview

In our Bachelor of Education, you'll get the skills, experience and confidence to make a difference from your first day as a qualified teacher. Carefully designed by leaders in the learning sciences, you'll learn the most up-to-date and proven approaches to teaching, then put them into practice.

Learn from currently practising teachers and be prepared to teach in any school. You'll spend at least 80 days in schools and education centres, learning how to manage classrooms, design class plans and guide students. You’ll graduate with the most up-to-date skills needed for the modern classroom.

Take your time. You won’t have to decide what you’ll teach – secondary, primary or early childhood – until the end of your first year.

Offered at every La Trobe campus in Victoria, you'll benefit from flexible learning – online, in schools, in community and on campus.
