Is there an equivalent post grad course in Oz that also runs for a year for primary teaching? does anyone know if it can be done through the UK O.U. how do you work out the practical part? Can you do it in Oz?

Anyone.........?

Thanks

There are Postgrad diplomas in primary education out there but only this in Canberra and it is 2 years. The Melbourne unis seem to have it - RMIT and LaTrobe seem to have one.

There is a secondary course run by the Australian Catholic University in Canberra but not apparently a primary course. There is a primary course for international students at Strathfield ACU apparently.

The OU has a PGCE but it looks as if it is for secondary subjects only. I have no idea how they would organize the practicum, it is hard enough to get one through ACU or UCan.

Quoll, is there anything you don't know Just a mine of info, thanks very much!

Saw canberra had a course for studies in secondary edu, I gave them a call yesterday asking about primary and just waiting for them to call me back, think I will be classed as an international student as we're only on a temp visa for 4 years..... need a years course really, I'm so impatient eh! Bu by the time I start the course never mind finish it I'd've chnged my mind I bet!
