Overview

For those who are inspired to teach young children, Deakin University’s Bachelor of Early Childhood Education provides them with the opportunity to explore early childhood education curriculum theories and pedagogies, child development, health and wellbeing, diversity and inclusion, professional studies as well as teaching and learning in discipline areas of literacy, mathematics, science and the arts. Students will undertake professional placements through Deakin University’s Professional Experience Program gaining both practical knowledge and skills to teach children aged birth to 5 years. By experiencing learning across a range of early childhood settings, they will graduate equipped with the confidence and aptitude to meet the significant growth of the Australian early childhood education sector. Students can fast-track their way to becoming an early childhood teacher with this three-year degree. They may additionally be eligible for an attractive scholarship offered by the Victorian Department of Education and Training for pre-service teachers enrolled in early childhood teaching courses. Deakin University maintains close links with the education sector to ensure the university's courses are developed and reviewed with professional input. Students will be taught by experts who have teaching experience and who are recognized as leaders and innovators in their fields. This means students can be confident that what they learn will be relevant to their future teaching career. The Bachelor of Early Childhood Education is approved by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) as an early childhood teaching qualification in Australia, and provides students with an approved pathway from the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care (previously Diploma of Children’s Services) offered through TAFE.
