Details

The Bachelor of Education in Senior and FET Phase with specialisation in Science at UFH prepares teachers to deliver Mathematics, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Geography, and Computer Science to Grades 7 to 12 learners. South Africa's acute shortage of qualified Science teachers is one of the most urgent challenges facing the education system, and UFH graduates make a direct contribution to addressing it — particularly in the Eastern Cape, where rural schools often lack access to qualified Science educators. This programme produces teachers with strong subject expertise and innovative pedagogical skills.
