Master of Teaching (Primary and Early Childhood) (088432D)

The Master of Teaching (Primary and Early Childhood) is infused with practical learning. With a focus on dynamic skills and communication, students will graduate classroom-ready; a finely tuned educator and leader with a set of adaptable techniques.

A career in education provides flexibility, variety and security. Learn first-hand from highly experienced and passionate teachers who understand the importance of recognizing all students as people first.

Discover how to shape teacher/student relationships to ensure students build positive connections with their peers, their school and themselves. Gain the critical knowledge required for modern-day digital classrooms, engaging with topics such as diversity and inclusion, teacher inquiry, context and leading-edge research, coupled with culturally relevant approaches to teaching.

At Deakin University, students will also collaborate with early childhood educators, primary and secondary teachers. This multidisciplinary approach will enable them to gain a well-rounded view of how young people learn.

This combined with at least 60-days of professional placement and students’ completion of a Deakin Teaching Performance Assessment (DTPA), benchmarked against national standards, means they will be set for success in the classroom anywhere in Australia and beyond.
