When children are exposed to high-quality educational experiences before starting school, their learning capabilities and in turn their chances of excelling in school are greatly improved. Quality early childhood education provides the foundation for reading, maths and science, and helps young children develop their social and emotional skills.

The Master of Teaching (Birth to Five Years) will provide you with the specialist knowledge and skills you need to work in prior-to-school settings, such as preschools and child care centres. Accredited by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA), this degree enables you to obtain a professional qualification as a teacher of young children.
