Student teachers will furthermore acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, attitudes and values of how educators can identify, assess, support and accommodate learners who experience physical and/or physiological difficulties, as well as learners who display challenging behaviour in the classroom. The main emphasis of this module is to teach student teachers skills on how to support learners with physical and/or physiological barriers, as well as learners who display challenging behaviour in the classroom and enhance their overall well-being by utilising and mobilising existing assets in the classroom, school and school-community.

University of Pretoria Programme Qualification Mix (PQM) verification project
The higher education sector has undergone an extensive alignment to the Higher Education Qualification Sub-Framework (HEQSF) across all institutions in South Africa. In order to comply with the HEQSF, all institutions are legally required to participate in a national initiative led by regulatory bodies such as the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET), the Council on Higher Education (CHE), and the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA). The University of Pretoria is presently engaged in an ongoing effort to align its qualifications and programmes with the HEQSF criteria. Current and prospective students should take note that changes to UP qualification and programme names, may occur as a result of the HEQSF initiative. Students are advised to contact their faculties if they have any questions.
