What will I learn?

Primary educators encourage children to reach their full potential, helping them develop foundational skills in areas such as literacy and numeracy, and assisting them to grow their physical, arts, social and emotional competencies.The Bachelor of Education (Primary) is part of an innovative suite of new education degrees being pioneered by Macquarie. Streamlined and future focused, the degrees provide the opportunity to undertake full-time employment as a conditionally accredited teacher during fourth year. Your studies will be integrated into your work via a hybrid program of ‘learn, plan, do, reflect cycles delivered through education networks helmed by expert teachers. In your first year, youll study a set of core units that explore inclusive practices, technology in the classroom, cultural and linguistic diversity, sustainability teaching, the integration of Indigenous knowledge in the classroom, and how children learn. In your second and third years, youll study units focused on primary teaching, and youll undertake your first professional placements. The streamlined nature of the degree, in conjunction with the extensive placements, means youll graduate wholly equipped with the capabilities to manage modern primary school settings.
