Bachelor of Education: Foundation Phase Teaching

This four-year programme is internationally recognised and qualifies graduates to teach grades R-3.

Overview

The BEd qualifies you to teach in any school in South Africa and to register with the South African Council of Educators (SACE). A BEd from Wits provides career options in teaching or educational research. 

You can choose from three BEd degrees: Foundation Phase Teaching: Grades R-3; Intermediate Phase Teaching: Grades 4-7; Senior Phase and Further Education and Training Teaching: Grades 8-12

While certain courses are compulsory for all BEd students, you can take other courses that prepare you to teach particular phases and teach subjects effectively to different age groups. All students undertake regular practical teaching experience during their studies.

Foundation Phase teachers help children develop a strong educational base and a love of learning. This includes teaching children to read and write and supporting them in developing their numeracy skills. It also means inviting children into enquiry-led explorations of their worlds through the interdisciplinary subject ‘Life skills’.
