Pursue a teaching career through AUT's Master of Teaching and Learning, a one-year professional program designed for graduates seeking to become early childhood or primary/intermediate educators. This intensive 180-point qualification extends beyond the typical academic calendar. Unlike the postgraduate diploma, this master's includes an additional 30-point research component in your second semester.
Choose to specialize in either early childhood or primary education while studying curriculum design and educational theory. The program includes practical teaching placements in either early childhood centers or primary/intermediate schools. Graduates qualify for provisional registration with New Zealand's Teaching Council. With its research-oriented approach, this degree encourages critical reflection on teaching practices through its mandatory 30-point research course.
The curriculum emphasizes diversity and social justice principles, mirroring Auckland's multicultural community and highlighting the value of inclusive education methods.
