Academic Admission

The minimum admission requirement to an undergraduate programme of study is a recognized High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC) or equivalent internationally recognized qualification(s). Students with a lower HSLC grade than 7.5/10 or 15/20 or equivalent depending on the grading system of the country issuing the HSLC are provided with extra academic guidance and monitoring during the first year of their studies.

In addition to the above applicants interested to register to the Primary Education Program need to have the following:

• Minimum grade in Greek and Mathematics 15/20

Course assessment usually comprises of a comprehensive final exam and continuous assessment. Continuous assessment can include amongst others, mid terms, projects, and class participation. Letter grades are calculated based on the weight of the final exam and the continuous assessment and the actual numerical marks obtained in these two assessment components. Based on the course grades the student’s semester grade point average (GPA) and cumulative point average (CPA) are calculated.

The student must complete 240 ECTS and all programme requirements. A minimum cumulative grade point average (CPA) of 2.0 is required. Thus, although a ‘D-‘ is a PASS grade, in order to achieve a CPA of 2.0 an average grade of ‘C’ is required.

On completion of the programme the student will be able to:

1. Identify the school’s role in contemporary society and especially its mission for promoting democratic values, collaboration and mutual understanding, interculturalism and active citizenship.
2. Relate the basic concepts and principles of Education Sciences and to actual teaching practice.
3. Review the basis of educational theory and practice, through historical, philosophic, psychological, and sociological approaches.
4. Identify and use the required teaching skills for effective planning and teaching.
5. Identify and use the teaching competencies that will enable them to facilitate their pupils’ critical thinking, active learning, and creativity.
6. Develop and implement research skill and lifelong learning competences and attitudes.
7. Function as agents of social change and improvement within the educational institutions they will be working with.
