Professional Placement A: Primary | Federation University

EEBED2005 Professional Placement A: Primary

This course is the first in a sequence of four courses of professional experience designed to develop students' competencies as professional teachers. It comprises a paired and supervised teaching experience of 15 days in a primary school. During this placement, Pre Service Teachers (PSTs) will connect and extend the coursework undertaken at university by engaging in practical and constructive experiences in a variety of learning settings that can include rural, regional and urban localities. University based pre-placement seminars will augment students' exploration of their professional learning and post-placement sessions will be undertaken to reflect on the professional experience and assist in developing future learning goals.

Commonwealth supported place (CSP)

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).

2026 contribution amount* $592
2026 grandfathered contribution amount^ $592

^ If you are a continuing student who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Psychology and Social Work bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.

International full fee–paying places

International tuition fees are course-based annual fees and the unit fee you pay will vary according to the degree you are studying. To find out more about international tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule visit our fees website.
