We'll help you become an engaging, motivating and innovative secondary school teacher.

With smaller class sizes, our education lecturers get to know our students, providing one-on-one assistance with assignments and course work – that’s why we’re Victoria’s #1 university for student support*.

Our Bachelor of Secondary Education will see you gain a deep knowledge of two specialist teaching areas combined with valuable classroom experience. You will graduate with the confidence to connect with young people and teach from year 7 through to VCE.

Teachers are in high demand and you can teach across Australia in remote communities, thriving regional centres or in our capital cities.

You are required to sit the CASPer test as part of your application. We recommend booking your CASPer test in advance so your application is not delayed. 

We provide a number of pathways and options to ensure you can follow your dream of becoming a great teacher.
