Elementary education is the teaching of children in primary school systems. A higher education program focused on this subject can include topics like lesson planning, classroom methods, communication, pedagogic theory, and child development.

Ministry of education often oversees the training in Fiji. The Fijian government offers partial sponsorship to students who manage to attend institutions of higher learning. This has enabled the higher education enrollment to double in recent years.

A bachelor's degree is given to students who fulfill the necessary requirements given by the college or university they are attending. The requirements include three to seven years of focus on a subject, typically referred to as a major or concentration.
