Ignite a passion for health, physical education and the outdoors in students for the rest of their lives

The Bachelor of Education (Secondary Health and Physical Education) not only offers exceptional training for future health and physical educators in school settings, but also responds to demand for highly trained educators from the sports, recreation and outdoor education industries.

From the first day of study, our students are immersed in practical activities and micro-teaching situations exploring the application of teaching theory in practice. The program works closely with schools and relevant organisations to ensure the most relevant and rigorous experiences, so graduates are indeed 'classroom ready'.
