About the course
What can I expect out of this qualification?
The aim of the Bachelor of Education (Primary, Pasifika) is to prepare teaching professionals to meet the current and future demands of the Aotearoa New Zealand primary through to intermediate schooling contexts (school years 0-8). This programme is positioned to ensure student teachers have the very best chance of access and success, drawing on their histories and experience with the ability to enter the programme through additional non-traditional exemptions complementary to the initial teacher education regulations as set by the Teaching Council of Aotearoa New Zealand.
Graduates will be culturally confident and competent responsive practitioners capable of using evidence to make decisions about the learning needs of individual learners. This will be achieved in a field-based learning model that emphasises partnership/relationships, culture and identity, teaching and learning and acquisition of skills and knowledge. Student teachers will demonstrate excellence in practice, focus on quality educational outcomes for learners and contribute to a wide range of current and future educational settings.
