School of Teacher Education

ECE teachers inspire imaginations, while guiding, playing and laughing with kids in a job in which no two days ever the same.

Primary teachers introduce children to learning - a rewarding and satisfying career in which you can make a real difference.

Secondary teachers specialise in subjects they are passionate about, and inspire their students to make a positive difference.

Our courses are ideal for teachers who want to upgrade their qualifications. They are offered on campus or by distance study.

UC offers a pathway for graduates of Sport Coaching and Health Sciences qualifications to become secondary school PE teachers.

TeachNZ Scholarships cover the cost of your course fees and pay you an allowance.
