About this programme
Ikon’s Master of Teaching (Early Childhood) is your pathway to an exciting career as an early childhood teacher. You will develop specialised knowledge and professional skills to become an early childhood teacher for children from birth to five years. You will discover how to use play pedagogy to teach subjects such as language, literacy, maths, numeracy, science, engineering, digital and design technologies, the creative arts, STEM and STEAM to young children. You will also learn contemporary early childhood contexts; documentation, planning and assessment; young children’s behaviour; working with families and communities; theories, pedagogies and curriculum; diverse and exceptional learners; practitioner inquiry research; leadership and service management. With a strong foundation in educational theory and modern pedagogic approaches, you will be empowered to create curriculum and early childhood services that facilitate all children’s learning, development and wellbeing. You will engage in 60 days of professional experience placements with babies, toddlers, and preschoolers in a variety of early childhood education settings. With Ikon, placements can be done at the service where you work so you can still earn while you learn. The Master of Teaching (Early Childhood) is pending ACECQA approval. This qualification is FEE-HELP approved for eligible applicants.
