The Bachelor of Teaching/Bachelor of Arts (Mathematics) is a double degree in Education and the Arts for students who want to teach Mathematics in secondary schools (in any government, non-government or independent school).

Students will develop the professional knowledge, skills and attitudes required of an effective classroom teacher and learn about the mathematics curriculum.

Students study Mathematics as a major and will also study another specialisation from our Arts disciplines. Unit offerings include options in Theology and Religious Education that enable students to teach in Catholic/Lutheran schools.

Secondary school placements during the course ensure valuable practical experience for students.

Professional experience

The current requirements are for a minimum of 80 days of professional experience that occurs in structured supervised settings.

Work placement

All initial teacher education programs must include a defined period, or professional experience, where pre-service teachers practise teaching in a school under the direct supervision and guidance of an appropriately qualified teacher. In order to graduate, pre-service teachers must satisfy all the requirements of their program, including the professional experience requirements. Supervised professional experience is at the heart of all our pre-service teacher education courses and the Faculty will find appropriate placements to suit the needs of your course. Placements will usually be arranged for the scheduled placement period in the professional experience calendar though this may not always be possible.

Careers

Our graduates have pursued careers in:

• secondary school teaching, including Catholic, government and independent settings

Students with a Student Visa will need to complete the program in minimum duration, study at least one subject on-campus each semester and must not undertake more than 33% of the program online.
