Secondary teaching

Description

There should be a general description of secondary teaching here, not the specific course…

Graduate Diploma in Education

This course prepares Christian teachers and chaplains to work in Christian, independent and government secondary schools. It is a one year full time program that integrates high quality learning in core and elective classes with a total of 60 days of practical field experience in schools.

Schools are places of change and development for children and young people. Christian teachers make significant impact on the lives of their students showing them something of the love and power of God, as well as helping them understand themselves, develop knowledge and skills and the capacities to live abundant and fruitful lives. The Graduate Diploma in Education (Secondary) is a challenging course designed for those who are called by God to serve Him as teachers.

Higher Education Commonwealth Supported Places

A number of Commonwealth Supported Places are currently available for the Graduate Diploma in Education. (Applicants must be an Australian citizen to be eligible for a Commonwealth Supported Place.) This will reduce the cost considerably for eligible students.

Academic entry requirements

Applicants are required to have an accredited Bachelor’s degree or other award of equivalent academic standing approved by the College for entry purposes, and consistent with the Victorian Institute of Teaching specialist area guidelines for entry purposes.
