Bachelor of Education in Secondary Teaching - Secondary Teaching English

Program Overview

Get the qualification you need to teach students from Years 7 to 12 in a teaching area you’re passionate about.

In addition, you will also choose a second teaching area (known as a minor), with the exception of Health and Physical Education (this must be combined together). By having qualifications in two teaching areas, you will have a competitive advantage with a variety of employers across Australia and overseas.

In this course, you’ll explore the role of education in society, learn how to manage a secondary level classroom, and get valuable experience working in school placements across the secondary years.


Major: Secondary Teaching English
Our world is dominated by the importance of written, visual and spoken communication.

Developing high-quality skills and knowledge in English is essential for young people, as it reaches so many areas of their lives. English teachers, who share their love of words and appreciation of literature, inspire their students to express their thoughts and ideas, discuss their concerns about issues, as well as develop essential skills in critical literacy. You could provide encouragement for the creative minds of the future with this English teaching qualification.

You’ll learn how to work in a range of teaching contexts and share your love of language as you join lectures, tutorials, discussions and a range of practical placements.
