Teacher Education Enabling Course
Why study the Teacher Education Enabling Course at UNE?
IMPORTANT: Applicants who need to satisfy normal admission requirements should apply for the Pathways Enabling Course. Both ENGL001 and MATH122 are offered in the Pathways Enabling Course. The Teacher Education Enabling Course DOES NOT satisfy normal admission requirements for any UNE course, nor is Advanced Standing granted from it towards any teacher education course.
The Teacher Education Enabling Course will provide students who have entered or who intend to enter undergraduate teaching degrees the opportunity to complete a Mathematics and/or English unit that will align to the Band 4 Higher School Certificate subject descriptors. This level of attainment is required by the New South Wales Institute of Teachers (NSWIT) for those students intending to seek teacher registration in New South Wales, who have not previously achieved this in their secondary studies.
Although eligible domestic students are exempt from the student contribution amount for HECS, they are still liable for the Student Services and Amenities Fee. Eligible students may apply for SA-HELP with regard to the Student Services and Amenities Fee.
