Become a Great Teacher, Not Just a Good One

If you have the calling to be a primary teacher, Curtin's Bachelor of Education (Primary) will supply you with the professional skills - and the qualification - you need to be successful.

You'll study development and education, technologies for learning, action learning in education, and how to manage students with diverse abilities. And you'll get the opportunity to put your learning into practice as you progress, thanks to more than 100 days of practicum placement.

The course is specifically designed for people wishing to pursue a career in primary level teaching, but will also qualify you to progress to a Masters or research degree.
