Overview

Nurture vital skills. With science, technology, engineering, and mathematics set to shape the future, we need great teachers to connect with the curious minds of young people in years 7-10.

This degree offers specialisations in Mathematics and/or Digital Technologies and/or another approved area. Through these mediums you'll build key skills and empower future generations.

Develop your digital capabilities in our eLearning Program - the first and only one of its kind for Education students in Australia. We will show you how to use your own iPad with pencil and keyboard to its full teaching potential so you can earn Apple Teacher status. You might even do your first year placement in an Apple Distinguished School.

In our Bachelor of Teaching (Middle) with Bachelor of Mathematical and Computer Science you'll:

  • build expertise in the areas you intend to teach^
  • explore educational issues, curriculum and practice relevant to the middle years
  • work with inspiring teachers and researchers
  • gain professional experience and connections through extensive school placements.
  • You'll graduate with the skills and knowledge to respond to the intellectual, social and emotional needs of students in the middle years. You will be fully qualified to register as a teacher Australia-wide. If you'd like to teach overseas, your degree will be valid in most other countries. An education background will also prove invaluable in a wide range of careers servicing communities outside of the classroom.

    ^ Teaching areas include: accounting, biology, business studies, chemistry, English, geography, history, languages, linguistics (EAL/D), mathematical sciences, physics.

    The Bachelor of Teaching is for students who have not undertaken university study. If you have already commenced a degree, you should consider completing that degree and then apply for the Master of Teaching (Middle and Secondary).

    Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education (LANTITE): Prior to commencing fourth year of the degree, students must successfully complete both the literacy and numeracy components of the LANTITE. The LANTITE is administered through ACER.

    This double degree program provides a professional qualification that is recognised for teacher registration purposes in South Australia. In most cases the qualification is portable to other states and overseas countries.

    Please note: Mid-year entry will only be available to domestic students. Due to the program structure and professional experience placements, students commencing mid-year study will complete their program in 4.5 years instead of 4 years.
