M.2.3 TEACHING POLICY
The teaching policy of the School of Teacher Education and Training
(STET) is aligned with the vision and mission of the North-West University
2
and the Faculty of Education and Training. The policy determines the
following aspects that bear on teaching in the Faculty:
Effective teaching
Education, teaching, and training
Medium of instruction
Quality assurance
Support for staff
Modes of delivery
Assessment
Technology and teaching
M.2.4 RESEARCH POLICY
The activities in the School of Teacher Education and Training (STET) are
in accordance with both the mission of the North-West University and the
strategic management plan of the Research Focus Area. The objectives
of research done in the STET are:
(i) exploiting new knowledge in the education areas that are the focus
of research in the STET;
(ii) interpreting, systematising and utilising in practice existing
knowledge in view of the education task;
(iii) investigating teaching methods typical of a subject;
(iv) evaluating existing theories and methods, developing new theories
and developing new methods;
(v) exploiting existing and new sources of knowledge in order to be of
service to the community;
(vi) investigating all those activities enabling more effective education,
such as activities concerning education administration, law and
systems, curriculum design and development.
M.2.4.1 RESEARCH FOCUS AREA
The research focus area of the STET, which is the area in which the
STET conducts research as per the Faculty of Education and Training
Research guidelines is known as Continuing Teacher Professional
Development.. The research programme of the STET covers various
aspects of School Improvement and Effectiveness whether in the area of
mathematics, science and technology; commerce and languages;
professional studies; foundation phase, and further teacher education and
training.
M.2.5 SCHOOLS AND FOCUS AREAS IN THE FACULTY
The Faculty of Education was re-structured at the beginning of 2013. The
name of the faculty was changed to the Faculty of Education and
Training, the School of Postgraduate Studies was renamed the School
of Educational Leadership Development (SELD), while the School of
Undergraduate Studies and the School of Continuing Education were
3
joined in the School of Teacher Education and Training (STET). A new
entity for the development of short learning programmes, CPTD as well
as year programmes, was also founded, namely the Centre for Teacher
Development (CTD).
The programmes of each School:
The School of Educational Leadership Development (SELD) is
responsible for providing postgraduate training by means of the Hons
BEd, MEd and PhD programmes.
The School of Teacher Education and Training (STET) is responsible
for providing pre-service training (teachers) by means of the Bachelor of
Education (BEd) and Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE). The
School is also responsible for the upgrading of under and unqualified
teachers as well as the further in-service training of practising teachers.
The different programmes are presented on campus and ensure that the
teacher can further his/her studies whilst continuing with his/her daily
task. The qualifications that can be obtained (ACE and NPDE) enable
teachers to contribute in a responsible and meaningful way to the
promotion of education in South Africa. (Please see M.2.6.1 regarding the
phasing out of these programmes).
M.2.6 QUALIFICATIONS AND PROGRAMMES IN FACULTY OF EDUCATION
In the Faculty of Education and Training different qualifications can be
obtained. In every School there are one or more programmes each of
which has a fixed curriculum. A potential student must, therefore, initially
decide which qualification h/she wishes to obtain. After a student has
decided which qualification he/she wishes to obtain, a direction of study
must be chosen, after which he/she must make a selection from the
different programmes presented in that direction.
M.2.6.1 NEW POLICY ON THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS FOR TEACHER EDUCATION QUALIFICATIONS
It is of utmost importance for past, present and future students in
Education to note that the Department of Higher Education and Training
issued through Government Notices No 583 of 15 July 2011 and No 1040
of 2012, in terms of Section 8(2)(c) of the National Qualifications
Framework Act, 2008 (Act 67 of 2008), a new policy on the minimum
requirements for teacher education qualifications. This policy aligns
qualifications for teacher education with the Higher Education
Qualifications Framework, 2007, and it replaced the Norms and
Standards for Educators in Schooling, 2000, in its entirety.
For your convenience, the following table sets out the current NQF levels
and the new NQF (HEQF) levels of the present and the future (new or re-
designed) qualifications in Education:

10 6 NPDE To be

For each of the above qualification types there are specialisations in
terms of minimum admission requirements, minimum total credits, NQF
(HEQF) levels, prescribed credit values at various NQF (HEQF) levels, its
purpose and characteristics, and progression possibilities [Note that all
the curricula of the present qualifications as reflected in above table will
be updated to fulfil the requirements of the new NQF (HEQF) levels].
The traditional qualifications BEd, Hons BEd, MEd and PhD and the
PGCE will still be offered. The new qualifications Postgraduate Diploma in
Education (PGDE) and the Advanced Diploma in Education (ADE) will
only be considered on the PQM after an in-depth needs analysis in 2013
to establish if it will be sustainable and viable programmes in the future.
The Advanced Certificate in Teaching (ACT) is not considered as a future
programme in the near future. The present programmes Advanced
Certificate in Education (ACE) and the National Professional Diploma in
Education (NPDE) will be phased out from 2015.
Regarding the PGDE, ADE and ACT it is important to ascertain yourself
of the roles of theses qualifications in the future. The PGDE will offer
specialisation further in the new role to support teaching and learning as
well as in the new learning specialisation phase or subject develop-ment.
It is on the same level as the Hons BEd but a sustained research project
may not be required; holders of the PGDE may be required to undertake
additional modules of at least 30 credits to obtain admission to the MEd.
The ADE is aimed for further specialisation in the new specialisation
phase or subject developed previously in the ACT as well as in the new
role to support teaching and learning. It is a pre-requirement to enrol for
the PGDE. The ACT is aimed on developing a new teaching
5
specialisation phase or subject. It is a pre-requirement for enrolment for
the ADE.
It is the responsibility of every person who is studying education or is
planning to study it at this faculty, to ascertain himself/herself of the terms
of Government Notices No 583 of 15 July 2011 and No 1040 of 2012.
M.2.7 MODULES AND CREDITS
Subjects are presented according to modules to which specific credit
values have been assigned.
M.2.8 RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING
The North-West University accepts the principle underlying outcomes-
based, source-based and lifelong learning, in which considerations of
articulation and mobility play a significant role, and subscribes to the
view that recognition of prior-learning, whether it has been acquired by
formal education programmes at this or other institutions, or informally
(by experience), is an indispensable element in deciding on admission
to, and awarding credits in, an explicitly chosen teaching-learning
programme of the university.
The recognition of prior learning concerns the provable knowledge and
learning that an applicant acquired, whether by having completed
formal education programmes, or by experience. At all times the
question will be what the level of skills are, and skills will be judged in
the context of the exit level skills required for the intended teaching-
learning programme, or modules in the programme, of the status for
which the applicant applies, and not merely by virtue of the experience
recorded by the applicant; recognition of prior learning will therefore
