3.5.1 Elementary Route

The elementary route (kindergarten to grade 6) of the BEd prepares graduates to teach across the elementary subject areas and in a curriculum specialization.

Consecutive (Two-Year After-Degree) Program

Applicants interested in focusing on elementary education require an academic degree from a recognized university, with an academic area normally from the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, fine arts, cultural studies, or communication.

Applicants must complete one half-course equivalent in English literature or French literature, normally prior to entering the program, to be eligible for admission.

Concurrent Degree Program

It is strongly recommended that students in the concurrent elementary route take Science 331. In addition, it is required that all concurrent students complete Education 201 prior to entering the third year of the concurrent program. Concurrent students who have not completed Education 201 cannot progress to Semester 1 of the BEd program.

All applicants in both the concurrent and consecutive routes are also required to select one of the specializations listed below:

Early Childhood Education
English as an Additional Language
English Language Arts
Fine Arts
French
Inclusive Education
Mathematics
Physical Education
Second Languages
Science
Social Studies

Generally, applicants do not require an academic degree in the chosen specialization, but relevant courses are strongly recommended.

For the French and second language specializations, applicants must be fully competent in oral and written French or second languages and demonstrate their competency in an interview.
