The Master of Teaching (Secondary) Internship program - IMTs can qualify to teach Classroom

The University of Melbourne is offering a new opportunity . . .
The Master of Teaching (Secondary) Internship program provides an opportunity for instrumental music teachers to complete a teaching qualification with a double music method whilst retaining and teaching in their current position and receiving a regular income.
The Master of Teaching (Secondary) Internship at the Melbourne Graduate School of Education is an employment-based pathway into teaching, attracting high achieving graduates and career-change professionals.
With strong discipline knowledge in the areas of instrumental music teaching and performance, you have much to contribute to your school community. Our rigorous selection approach, which tests both commitment and aptitude for a career in teaching, ensures quality interns are carefully selected and meet your school’s particular requirements. Before you begin teaching in classes unsupervised, you will complete a six week intensive study program and school induction to prepare you for leading a classroom. You will also arrive at your school at the beginning of the year registered by the Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) with Permission to Teach (PTT).  Throughout the three year program, you and your school will be closely supported by a network of professionals including an MGSE Clinical Specialist, a school appointed Transition Coach and School Mentor. They will work closely with you to guide your professional learning.
If you are committed to developing your pedagogy further and being qualified to teach (unsupervised) in classroom and instrumental settings, then the Master of Teaching (Secondary) Internship is worth considering. If you’d like more information about the program and how it could benefit you and your school, please contact Hilary Smith, Program Manager, on 03 8344 3589 or h.smith@unimelb.edu.au or visit our website: http://education.unimelb.edu.au/…/master_of_teaching_second…
How Will It Work?

Teachers will continue to teach in their current position on a 0.8 teaching load
Teachers will continue to be paid at their current salary level at 0.8 time fraction
Teachers attend intensive on campus studies for six weeks over summer, and one week during winter, as well as online work throughout the semester
Teachers will teach unsupervised in classroom, instrumental and ensemble music settings
Teachers will be supported by a Mentor Teacher in their school, together with a Transition Coach and a Clinical Specialist who will visit regularly from MGSE
On completion of the course teachers will receive a Master of Teaching (Secondary) with a double music method which meets with the VIT requirements for employment as a fully qualified classroom and instrumental music teacher.
