If you have PDHPE Teaching Methods subjects on your study plan, please get in contact with the School for more advice.

* Please note that we have checked student study plans and these are the most appropriate teaching method subjects to undertake. However, if you have concerns that it is the wrong subject, please submit an eRequest.

We strongly encourage you to complete your subjects by the last offering date. There will not be any subject substitutions available. It may be possible to complete concurrent study if a suitable subject can be identified from another tertiary institution.

It may be possible for you to enrol into additional subjects (more than 4 subjects) per session. In order to do this, you will need to submit an eRequest. Please give us a brief reason about how you can cope with the additional load of study. Your previous session’s results will be considered to confirm your ability to take on an additional load of study.

No, due to the teach-out no future changes to your study plan will be available as some subjects will no longer be offered.

If you are interested in studying secondary teaching, please consider our combined Master of Teaching in Secondary Education programs. To apply for this course, please visit the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) website.

It may be possible to change your primary specialisation, but please note that the teach-out is on a tight schedule where your subjects may need to be substituted in order to complete the specialisation or you will need to complete an equivalent subject at another institution via concurrent study.

If you have already commenced your current primary specialisation and want to change to another specialisation, it may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

There are changes happening to the Secondary Teaching Methods subjects but these will be occurring as subject substitutions instead of a teach-out because we still have a teaching methods on offer. Please note that we have reduced the teaching method subjects from four to three.

Our Secondary English program has integrated Communications subjects (such as Fictional Forms, Imagining the Real) into the program. The Communication courses were recently reaccredited whereby their major subjects have changed from 8 credit point subjects to 6 credit point subjects. The School of Communications will be offering 2 credit point subjects if you are missing credit points. These subjects are:

• Active resilience in the workplace (2cp)
• Navigating workplace conflict (2cp)

These subjects will be delivered online and will be self-directed over a six week period.

Please let us know what you’re having problems via eRequest so that we can be flagged that there is a potential issue.

The list of elective choices has been decreasing over the past few years because the majority are Primary major students who only take one pure elective.

Secondary students could potentially take up to five electives if they select the elective stream.

In the future, these elective numbers will also potentially decrease due to the need to maintain a viable staff/subject ratio.

At the moment, we will work methodically on updating the study plan management website with the teach-out and potential future enrolment. As there are numerous study plans to update, this will take longer than usual. If you have questions about your individual study plan for the time being, please contact soiseinfo@uts.edu.au.
