The on-campus component of this unit prepares graduate Pre-Service Teachers to engage in a 6-week professional experience in a school setting. This includes core lectures, assessment tasks and a range of guest lecturers who are industry specialists. The Third Professional Experience provides graduate Pre-Service Teachers with an opportunity to apply knowledge and skills gained in the second professional experience and to further consolidate the connection between theory and practice. Graduate Pre-Service Teachers plan and prepare appropriate learning activities which demonstrate an advanced and integrated understanding of the developmental needs and interests of the children in their class. This unit gives the graduate Pre-Service Teacher an opportunity for continuous planning, teaching and assessment as they gradually assume responsibility for the learning program in the classroom. It allows the graduate Pre-Service Teacher the opportunity to master the teaching skills required to function as an autonomous practitioner. Designated unit: This professional experience unit is deemed to be a fundamental course requirement and may only be attempted once unless otherwise determined by Board of Examiners. Failure to pass these units may result in exclusion from the course.
Generally, host Schools and Centres require that the pre-service teachers attend the placement on a full time basis and otherwise meet their specific attendance requirements of the particular placement. There is limited scope for ECU to negotiate any deviations from these requirements.

Pre-Service Teachers are expected to participate in all lectures, workshops, tutorials and/or online teaching and learning processes. During the placement, it is imperative that Pre-Service Teachers demonstrate professionalism and respect for industry partners at all times. Pre-Service Teachers must abide by the professional standards set out in the ECU Student Code of Conduct and comply with the applicable University policies and rules. All pre-service teachers 18 years of age and over will be required to have a current Department of Education Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check (NCCHC) and a current Working with Children Check, or the equivalent clearance issued by the relevant State authority before commencing this Professional Experience. The host School/Centre has absolute discretion to terminate the Pre-Service Teachers placement prior to completion of the placement. Situations where this discretion has been exercised are typically where the School/Centre has had concerns about Pre-Service Teacher's conduct or performance. ECU may also withdraw a Pre-Service Teacher from placement in certain circumstances. Early termination or withdrawal from the professional practice placement may result in a Fail grade for this unit.
