I'm a secondary school Maths teacher working in the UK. I would like to move out to Oz to teach in secondary schools next year. Unfortunately I have a blemished CRB form which includes ABH from a couple of years ago plus a couple of other similar convictions from a number of years ago Although I have been cleared by the DFeS and General Teaching Council to teach in the UK, would I be barred from teaching in secondary schools in Oz? I have been told Australia is really strict about criminal records.
