Our Bachelor of Education course is designed to help you become a skilled and creative teacher.
In Years One and Two, students cover the basics needed for teaching. You will come to understand how children think and learn in active ways. Your curriculum courses will prepare you to teach all the subjects of the primary curriculum using approaches that develop children’s understanding and motivation. You’ll also take modules in Psychology, Philosophy Sociology of Education and History of Education.
In Year Three, you’ll review what you’ve learned to date and will apply it in different situations. You’ll enrich your understanding of classroom contexts and of how to plan for rich learning experiences. You’ll learn how to work with children in ways that are democratic and enable them to engage in an ethical way with the world.
Year Four focuses on deepening your expertise. It will provide you with opportunities to think about big ideas in education such as social justice, inclusion and working in a school community. You will also undertake a research project.
Students spend time in schools in each year, with extended placements in each of Years Three and Four. You’ll start by observing the class teacher and will build up gradually to teaching all day. Throughout your placements, you’ll be supported by both faculty and school staff.
The majority of DC004 placements will be in schools under Church of Ireland, Methodist, Presbyterian and Society of Friends patronage with a particular focus on developing the experience and skills for teaching multi-grade classes in small schools.
In Year One you’ll select a specialism from English, Geography, History, Mathematics, Music, and Religious Studies. Students on the DC004 pathway will also take a Gaeilge specialism in Year One.
Students on the DC004 pathway are required to follow a specific major specialism preparing them particularly to work in primary schools under Protestant patronage, 79% of which are small schools. These students specialise in teaching in multi-level classes which will include modules on inclusive education, early childhood education, integrated and project-based learning and leadership, research and policy in small schools. The expertise acquired by following this pathway will also be of great value to graduates who work in larger schools.
Be taught by internationally recognised experts in primary teacher education.
Gain experience in a broad range of classes in different types of schools.
Work within small groups where you'll get to know your fellow students well.
Make an impact with an action research project as part of your final school placement.
