About studying teacher education
Teaching degrees combine subject knowledge and teaching method with supervised placements in schools. To register as a teacher you need an accredited initial teacher education degree. Not every degree in this area is one, so check before you apply.
This describes the field in general, not this course. Check the university's page for what this course covers.
Getting into teacher education courses
Selection is primarily ATAR-based. Units 3 and 4 English is the usual prerequisite, and initial teacher education also requires a non-academic suitability assessment and a working with children check before placements.
This describes the field in general, not this course. Check the university's page for what this course covers.
These are the lowest rank and the lowest ATAR that got an offer in 2024, not a cut-off or a guarantee. Next year's depends on how many places there are and who applies. How ATARs really work · Didn't get the ATAR you needed?
What this course asks for beyond your ATAR
Getting an offer also involves a written statement. Your rank is not the whole decision here, so a course that looks out of reach on ATAR alone may not be, and one that looks safe may not be either.
We show that these requirements exist, not what they currently say, because universities change them and we would rather send you to the source than repeat something out of date. Check the current requirements at UAC

Do students stay and finish?
Source: Dept of Education, 2024Of students who started at UNE in 2016, nine years later:
- Finished a degree
- 52.4%
- Still studying
- 7.9%
- Left after returning
- 26.7%
- Never came back after first year
- 13%
More recently: of new UNE bachelor students in 2023, 21.6% didn't come back to study at any university the following year.
Students are followed if they move: finishing a degree at another university counts as finishing, and moving to another university doesn't count as leaving. Read these alongside the quality measures, not instead of them. Completion and attrition partly reflect who a university enrols – universities serving more regional, mature-age and part-time students naturally run higher attrition without being worse at teaching.

At least 86% of this intake got in by a route other than a school ATAR – worth knowing if your rank isn't where you want it. The other ways in
From the standard student-profile table universities publish for each course's intake. Categories are the national admissions-transparency ones. The university didn't report a breakdown for 14% of this intake (small groups are kept private), so the shares above don't add to 100%.
