Study a UWS Teaching and Education degree to gain the skills you need to make a positive difference to individuals and the wider world. You can work with people of all ages and backgrounds, helping their growth and development and, ultimately, improving social and educational standards across society. What’s more, you can teach in subject areas that you excel in and are passionate about.

UWS provides a clear and direct pathway in whatever area of education you wish to work. If your passion is to work with young children, the comprehensive nature and contemporary focus of our early childhood programs will give you a head start in that area. And, there are further pathways such as Honours, Special Education, Masters programs in Leadership and Social Ecology, and eventually research Masters and Doctoral research programs to help you fast track into higher degrees of success in your career.

The practical experience you will gain in our primary and other teaching programs will give you the confidence to hit the ground running right from your first day at school. With two qualifications instead of one, your employment prospects and career progression are greatly enhanced.

Maybe you have already completed a specialist degree or are well on the way to doing so. A secondary teaching qualification is the bridge to a clear career path where you can use those specialist skills and knowledge to help create tomorrow’s generation of leaders in their chosen fields.

You may embrace the idea that learning is for life, and recognise the opportunities adult education opens for helping others maximise their potential.
