POSTGRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN EDUCATION

SECTION B

Admission requirements

A bachelor’s degree is required for all four phases, with particular requirements in each phase as stipulated below:

1) Early Childhood Development and Foundation Phase

Preference will be given to candidates who passed Education and/or Psychology modules.

2) Intermediate Phase

Two degree modules passed at a first-year academic level (100) which correspond with one or more relevant learning areas at school level (see programme modules).

3) Senior Phase

Two degree modules passed at a second-year academic level (200) which correspond with one or more relevant learning areas at school level (see programme modules).

4) Further Education and Training Phase

At least one degree module passed at a third-year academic level (300) which corresponds with a relevant school subject (see programme modules).

Since degree modules do not necessarily correspond directly with learning areas and/or subjects at school level, the package coordinator (in consultation with the lecturer of the particular specialisation) should submit exceptional cases to the Dean.

1. Please indicate in the table below the TWO phases that you qualify for in accordance with the admission requirements stated above.

2. Indicate the degree module(s) that you have passed, the year that you have passed it and the average achievement (%) you maintained.
