Bachelor of Education (K-12)

CSU's Bachelor of Education (K-12) prepares graduates for flexible practice as teachers in both primary and secondary school settings.

Why study this course?

This course produces teacher-ready individuals who are reflective in their practice, will manage the changing nature of teaching, have well developed interpersonal skills and desire to put current developments in learning and teaching into practice.

Graduates from CSU's Bachelor of Education (K-12) will have a high school major in either Business Studies, English, Mathematics, Modern History or Science. The option of concurrently enrolling in the Bachelor of Educational Studies allows candidates to gain a second high school specialist area and five-year teacher registration. This innovative course aims to develop graduates who are sensitive to the community context in which they work. It also aims to promote personal and professional attitudes and values that will encourage an optimistic, ethically sound and thoughtful approach to the educational and personal development.

This course will be available in mixed-mode after third year to offer portability and study options for students. Some subjects in this course must be completed in Session 3 (November to February), where indicated in the course structure. Please ensure that for these specific sessions you are prepared to be enrolled in all three sessions for the calendar year.

Professional experience

Extensive professional experience in a variety of primary and secondary settings are included in this course. Students are advised to obtain a Senior First Aid Certificate and immunisations / screenings against infectious diseases (in accordance with NSW Health policy) prior to commencing school placements. Relevant police checks are compulsory and students are also responsible for any travel and accommodation expenses to and from their school placements.

Additional admission requirements

Professional recognition

This course is currently seeking re-accreditation with the NSW Institute of Teachers to 31 December, 2018. Graduates from this program will possess a teaching award that is recognised nationally.

CRICOS code

048239C

Graduation requirements

To graduate with CSU’s Bachelor of Education (K-12) students must satisfactorily complete 304 points and 320 points for the Science high school teaching area.

Academic expectations

For each 8 point subject at CSU, students should normally expect to spend between 140-160 hours engaged in the specified learning and assessment activities (such as attending lectures or residential schools, assigned readings, tutorial assistance, individual or group research/study, forum activity, workplace learning, assignments or examinations). The student workload for some subjects may vary from these norms as a result of approved course design.

Students will be assessed on the basis of completed assignments, examinations, workplace learning, or other methods as outlined in specific subject outlines.

Where applicable, students are responsible for travel and accommodation costs involved in workplace learning experiences, or attending residential schools (distance education students).

Expectations relating to academic, workplace learning, time and cost requirements for specific subjects are provided in the subject abstracts and in course materials.

Career opportunities

Graduates will be eligible for employment in primary and secondary schools. Notably, accrediting teachers to teach in both primary and secondary school settings is an opportunity few teacher education degrees offer.

Workplace learning

Anaphylaxis training for all initial teacher education students

The NSW Institute of Teachers now requires that all initial teacher education students have training in anaphylaxis. In order to meet this requirement, ALL students must complete the training module found at http://etraining.allergy.org.au. The online module takes approximately one hour to complete.

On successful completion of the online module, participants will receive a certificate of completion. A copy of this certificate must be attached to your application for your professional experience placement. The NSW Institute suggests that students also present a copy of their certificate of completion to principals at the commencement of their professional experience placements. The training must be successfully undertaken every two years and students will need to ensure that their certificate of completion is current.

The NSW Department of Education and Communities advises that students who do not successfully complete this training, as verified by the university, will not be able to undertake professional experience activities in NSW public schools.


National Criminal Record Check

Students may be required to undergo a criminal record check and/or complete a Prohibited Employment Declaration under the Child Protection Act 1998 as part of professional experience requirements. These checks are intended to identify people who might, because of convictions for such things as violence or sexual offences, put students/clients' personal safety or health at risk. Traffic violations and other minor offences are not of interest.

As such, prospective students should be aware that an inability to obtain a criminal record clearance or complete a Prohibited Employment Declaration may limit practicum opportunities in some organisations and industries. Furthermore, criminal convictions involving violence or sexual offences may limit continued enrolment in a course and/or employment opportunities after completing the course.

If you have any queries regarding these matters, including the opportunities available for review of a particular case, contact the Course Director.

Additional admission requirements

Standard admission requirements of the University will apply. Students should apply through UAC, or Victorian students applying for study at Albury-Wodonga Campus can apply through VTAC.

International students from non-English speaking backgrounds must have an Academic IELTS score of 6.5 in Reading and Writing, and 7.5 in Speaking and Listening for admission to this course.

Please note that these requirements are for admission to this course, not to the teaching profession in Australia. Employment in Australian schools is conditional on more stringent English Language Proficiency requirements.

The Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership (AITSL) set graduate standards and course requirements which are administered by the NSW Institute of Teachers. All students who graduate from this course must meet the prerequisite standard of literacy and numeracy.

The assumed knowledge / entry requirement is:

  • Higher School Certificate minimum Band 4 in English Advanced, Standard English or English as a Second Language

and

  • Band 4 in General Mathematics or completion of Mathematics or Extension Mathematics to an equivalent standard.

Where you do not meet these entry requirements, CSU offers concurrent study in English and Mathematics before graduation.

Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership - Employment Requirement

AITSL has introduced changes to the assessment criteria for English language proficiency to be consistent with teacher registration requirements in Australian states and territories, as per below:

English Language proficiency requirements

An Academic version of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) Test Report Form (TRF) that shows:

  • a score of at least 7.0 for Reading and Writing; and
  • a score of at least 8.0 for Speaking and Listening.

The IELTS test scores must appear on a single IELTS TRF and be the result of a test undertaken during the 12 month period prior to submitting an application.

OR

An applicant has completed study assessed by AITSL as comparable to at least four years of full-time (or part-time equivalent) higher education (university) study, that results in a qualification/s comparable to the education level of an Australian bachelor degree or higher, (must include a recognised initial teacher education qualification) in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom or the United States of America.


New South Wales Institute of Teachers - Employment Requirement

ACCEPTED ENGLISH LANGUAGE TESTS
The tests and results which are accepted by the NSW Institute of Teachers are listed below.

International English Language Testing System (IELTS)
The IELTS test for academic purposes is an appropriate test for prospective teachers. The Institute requires that the applicant needs to attain a minimum overall score of 7.5 including a minimum result of 8.0 in both the speaking and listening modules and 7.0 in reading and writing. The test is widely accepted as an international standard for English language skills. Testing and locations can be found at www.ielts.org.

Professional English Assessment for Teachers (PEAT)
The applicant must have Band A in each of the four areas: speaking, listening, reading and writing. This test has been developed for teachers intending to teach in the NSW Department of Education and Training (DET). DET requires relevant teachers to undertake the PEAT. The DET has advised that Band A is required for teaching in government schools. It is available at the University of NSW Institute of Languages. The website is www.lang.unsw.edu.au/PEAT/. Only the DET may refer teachers to undertake PEAT.

International Second Language Proficiency Rating (ISLPR)
The applicant must have a score of at least 4+ in each of the four areas: speaking, listening, reading and writing. This test was originally developed as the ASLPR (Australian Second Language Proficiency Rating). It was developed at Griffith University and is available in a form specifically designed to test language proficiency in the teaching context. The website is www.islpr.org.

EXCEPTIONS
The following applicants generally do not need to complete one of the approved language tests:

  • applicants for whom English is their first language
  • applicants who have gained the majority of their qualifications in English, in a country where English is the main language. These countries are: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Republic of Ireland, United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), Republic of South Africa and the United States of America
  • applicants who can provide evidence that they have successfully taught in English in a school in a country where English is the main language for a substantial period of time

CURRENCY OF RESULTS
The Institute has accepted the advice of the test providers regarding the length of currency of results. Applicants who submit results from IELTS must submit results from a test taken within a period of two years of their application for provisional or conditional accreditation. Applicants who submit results from ISLPR must submit results from a test taken within a period of twelve months of their application for provisional or conditional accreditation. A successful PEAT does not lose currency.

See the Workplace learning tab for special requirements for professional experience placements.

Admission requirements

To be admitted into the course, prospective students need to indicate their likelihood of success through:

  1. previous studies, and
  2. other attainments and experience.

Previous studies

Previous studies include:

  • the NSW Higher School Certificate or interstate /overseas equivalent;
  • the International Baccalaureate Diploma;
  • a completed or part completed course of a university, college of advanced education or other accredited tertiary institution;
  • a completed or part completed course of a TAFE college or other accredited post-secondary institution (including TAFE Tertiary Preparation Certificate);
  • an approved Foundation Studies program certificate;
  • completion of undergraduate subjects as an Associate Student with the University or through another University, or Open Universities Australia.

NSW and interstate school leavers are normally selected on the basis of their Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) or interstate equivalent. You may also be admitted on the basis of a strong performance in subjects relevant to your course preferences.

Currently no secondary school subjects are prerequisites for admission to particular CSU courses however some courses assume a certain level of knowledge. This will be specified in the course information if applicable.

English language proficiency

The University has minimum requirements for English language proficiency prior to entry to our courses. Some courses also have a requirement for a higher entry or exit level of English proficiency. More information on English language requirements.

Attainment and experience

You may also be admitted to a course based on other attainments and experience. These may include:

  • voluntary or paid work experience;
  • performance in tests and examinations conducted by professional recognised bodies;
  • participation in continuing education programs and/or staff development programs conducted by adult education agencies, consultancies, professional bodies or employers;
  • completion of the Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT).

Internet access

CSU places great emphasis on services to its students. It is a leader in the provision of online services and, in particular, the use of the internet in the support of teaching, administration and communications with students.

The online environment is so integrated into all aspects of student life and the learning experience at CSU that the University now assumes that all on campus and distance education students at CSU will have ongoing access to an internet connected computer capable of communicating with CSU online systems.

Students enrolled in Information Technology subjects (i.e. with an ITC subject code) may be required to have additional hardware and/or software that is deemed essential for the completion of the learning activities in that subject.
