The Faculty of Education at Nelson Mandela University is an important role-player in Initial Teacher Education, particularly in meeting urgent educational needs in the Eastern Cape.

The B Ed Senior Phase and Further Education and Training (SP-FET) program is offered on a full-time basis at Nelson Mandela University’s South Campus in Port Elizabeth and aims to address the need for ‘more teachers’ and ‘better teachers’ at Secondary School level.
