The BEd Post-Primary is a four year honours degree programme
leading to full recognition to teach by the Department of Education.
At St Mary’s we believe that our vocation is to prepare
and provide excellent teachers who can lead and inspire children
in a life of learning and who will pass on the beliefs, values,
knowledge and skills necessary for leading a full life in society.
Teaching is not just a job, it is a vocation. Teachers must believe
in their vocation and in the importance of their work for the
future of the individual child and the well–being of society
as a whole. In our teacher education courses we aim to provide
teachers who have:
- a liking and caring for children and a sensitivity towards
their needs;
- an enthusiasm about teaching and a commitment to the education
process;
- a belief in the promotion of equal opportunities, recognising
differences occasioned by race, religion, sex, class or disability
and the need to adopt non-discriminatory practices in all these
respects;
- a willingness to learn and an openness to change and innovation;
- a lively mind and a range of cultural and other interests.
