The Department of Teacher Education offers three programs of study for candidates interested in teaching Primary/Junior (grades K-6), Junior/Intermediate (grades 4-10) and Intermediate/Senior (grades 7-12) at the St. Catharines and Hamilton campuses. Field placements for the Junior/Intermediate program will normally be made in grade 4 - 8.

In addition, the Department of Teacher Education co-operates with other departments in offering concurrent programs leading to the conferring of a BA Honours/BEd (Intermediate/Senior), BA Child and Youth Studies (Honours)/BEd (Primary/Junior), BA Integrated Studies Honours/BEd (Junior/Intermediate), BPhEd Honours/BEd (Intermediate/Senior or Junior/Intermediate), BSc Honours/BEd (Intermediate/Senior) and BSc Integrated Studies Honours/BEd (Junior/Intermediate). Bachelor of Education programs are field oriented and are based on an approach unique in Ontario. Much of the orientation to and instruction in professional practice takes place through supervised cohort groups of teacher candidates in schools throughout the Niagara Peninsula and the regions of Hamilton Wentworth, Haldimand-Brant, Halton and Peel. Transportation to required off-campus courses, internship centres and schools is the responsibility of the teacher candidate. Candidates who are accepted into the BEd program to teach in secondary schools are assigned to work with specialized subject area tutors from secondary schools.

The Department of Teacher Education reserves the right to assign Concurrent Education students in their final year to either the Hamilton or St. Catharines campus in order to secure school placements aligned with teachable subjects.

Upon acceptance into the program, applicants must complete a satisfactory criminal background check through the Ontario Education Services Corporation. School Boards require teacher candidates to complete this background screening prior to having direct contact with students. Otherwise schools will not allow teacher candidates to participate in practice teaching. In addition, the Ontario College of Teacher's requires a separate criminal background check before certification.

The teacher education program is organized subject to the requirements of Brock University and outside regulatory organizations that govern teacher education in Ontario (e.g., the Ontario College of Teachers). The program requirements for the Teacher Education program may change in order to meet the outside regulatory requirements.

Teacher candidates who have successfully completed all required courses in the program for a BEd will normally be recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for an Ontario Certificate of Qualification.

An essential part of the Teacher Education program takes place in schools with at least 11 weeks of observation and teaching (EDUC 8D09/8L09). When performance in EDUC 8D09/8L09 is regarded as inadequate, the teacher candidate will be assessed by the Co-ordinator of Practice Teaching or designate. That assessment will determine eligibility to proceed in EDUC 8D09/8L09. Where performance so warrants, and in the interest of the pupils' welfare, the Faculty will not place a teacher candidate in a classroom or will remove a teacher candidate from the classroom.

All teacher candidates are advised to refer to the policies and procedures in the Program Notes for Teacher Candidates.

Successful candidates of the Teacher Education Primary/Junior, Junior/Intermediate and Intermediate/Senior program will be awarded a BEd, and are normally recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for membership and to receive their Ontario Certificate of Qualification.

Successful degree candidates of the Technological Education program will be awarded a BEd while non-degree candidates will be awarded a Certificate in Education. Teacher candidates are normally recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for membership and to receive their Ontario Certificate of Qualification. Candidates are certified to teach one of the following areas: communications technology, computer technology, construction technology, green industries, hairstyling and aesthetics, health care, technological design, hospitality and tourism, manufacturing and transportation technology. Candidates must meet all additional Ontario College of Teachers requirements. Candidates will receive the Science and Technology, Grade 7 and 8 Additional Qualification along with a Certificate of Technology for the completion of practical studies in design and production involving various technologies. The focus of this study is a more thorough understanding of the Grade 7-10 learner in practical areas of technology with a focus on the Grade 9 Exploring Technologies area. In addition to satisfactorily completing the methodology course(s), candidates will demonstrate and prove their technical proficiency in their selected area both through the summer practical sessions, as well as their practicum placements during the year. Those who complete the program successfully and are certified by the Ontario College of Teachers, may enroll in an Additional Qualifications course, where available, to obtain a Grade 9 & 10 qualification in a second broad based technology area.

Three Native Teacher Education programs (NTEP) are offered to prepare Native elementary school teachers. These programs meet the certification requirements of the Ontario College of Teachers.

Aboriginal candidates who hold an undergraduate degree may apply to the regular Teacher Education program. Successful candidates of the regular Native Teacher Education program will be awarded a BEd and are normally recommended to the Ontario College of Teachers for membership and to receive their Ontario Certificate of Qualification.

The Native Teacher Education Primary/Junior Certificate Program prepares candidates for teaching Grades K-6 in elementary schools. The basic courses are adapted for the needs of Native pupils. Along with the basic requirements, the program includes experiences in the Aboriginal languages and cultures of the participants. At least eight weeks of practice teaching will be completed by each candidate.

Successful candidates of the Primary/Junior Certificate Program of the Native Teacher Education program may be recommended by the Dean of the Faculty of Education to the Ontario College of Teachers for certification to teach in Ontario at the Primary/Junior level.

The Native as a Second Language Certificate Program is open only to speakers fluent in a Native language focusing on teaching methods for language specialists, as well as on the grammar and writing systems of the candidates' Native languages. At least eight weeks of practice teaching will be completed by candidates in this program.

Successful completion of the Native as a Second Language Certificate Program of the Native Teacher Education program leads to certification in Native as a Second Language (NSL). To qualify for the NSL certificate, candidates must complete at least one year of successful teaching after the first summer session.

For further information regarding the Department of Teacher Education program, candidates should contact the Chair, Department of Teacher Education.

Those interested in a teaching career in Ontario are advised to refer to the Ontario College of Teachers Act 1996 and (Regulation 184/97 Teachers Qualifications) with respect to teachable subjects, definitions, basic qualifications and regulations.

Admissions

Go to top of document

Candidates are expected to have some experience in working with children and youth of the age group in the program for which they are applying.

Enrolment in the Faculty of Education is limited to approximately 600 positions for both concurrent and consecutive programs. Applicants for the consecutive year program for the Primary/Junior, Junior/Intermediate and Intermediate/Senior divisions must have completed the requirements for a Bachelor's Degree acceptable to Brock prior to the beginning of classes in September. Selection is based on the academic average of the best 10 undergraduate degree credits and on experience as submitted on the Brock Experience Profile Form. The Experience Profile should include two experiences of a minimum of 100 hours each. Only candidates with a minimum B average (75 percent at Brock) on their top 10 credits will be considered. Because the experience profile is a significant part of the selection process, applicants should complete the form with care. For applicants to the consecutive year Technological Education program selection is based on a combination of academics, competency in skilled, work-related experience and the Brock Applicant Profile Form.

Applications are available from the Ontario Universities Application Centre (OUAC) at: http://www.ouac.on.ca/teas and must be received by the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) by the date specified in the OUAC TEAS application form, to be considered for admission to the program. All supporting documentation (a university transcript, Experience Profile and two letters of verification) must be received at the Registrar's Office, Brock University, by the date specified in the OUAC application form. Only information received by those dates will be considered part of the admission file.

Applicants who are not Canadian citizens or landed immigrants may be admitted to the program for a BEd degree. Such persons are eligible for the Ontario Certificate of Qualification program where they show evidence of authorization to work in teaching in Canada. Such persons receive a Certificate of Qualification (Limited/Restricted), (Ont. Reg. 184).

Because of the highly integrated nature of the program, candidates who have preregistered must be present for the beginning of program activities.

In addition to the general requirements, candidates for the BEd and certification to teach in Ontario must submit the following:
