    Hi Guys,

    I would really appreciate if any Mary I student past or present can give me their honest perspective on the differences (positives/negatives) in doing a Graduate Diploma in Primary Teaching opposed to a Bachelor of Education in Primary Teaching.

    After completing a degree that I no longer have a passion for (Accounting/Finance 2:2) I am seriously considering in applying for either of these two options.

    However, I am slightly sceptical of the Grad Dip, as Im worried that on completion, would a perspective employer/Principal treat me with the same academic standard as a B.Ed?

    Also, would I as a Grad. Dip student have the same post graduate opportunities as a B.Ed graduate?

    Finally, if anyone is doing the Grad Dip, I would really appreciate advise on its course structure and subjects?


    Le Meas!
