Overview

The Master of Teaching Secondary programme from The University of Western Australia ensures you have an in-depth knowledge of the theory and the practical skills required for secondary teaching.

Candidates must have a degree with sufficient units related to a subject in the school curriculum. As there is a shortage of secondary English, Mathematics and Physics teachers in Australian schools, we particularly encourage students with qualifications in those areas to consider a career in teaching.

Career opportunities:

As a graduate of this course you will be able to work in government and independent schools, both nationally and internationally.

Accreditation

The Master of Teaching is accredited by the Teacher Registration Board of Western Australia (TRBWA) and recognised as an accredited program by the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership (AITSL).

Graduates are eligible to register with TRBWA and this entitles them to be legally employed as a teacher.
