A Bachelor of Science (or BEd, or Bachelor of Education) degree serves as an undergraduate preparation course for teaching across many subjects. Courses typically cover teaching theory, classroom management and pedagogy as well as how to effectively deliver lessons and work with children. A BSc also makes an ideal basis for postgraduate research studies.
