I have completed an NQT year and then had 3 years out working in the French Alps. I am only 28, still ambitious and looking for a fulfilling lifetime career in teaching!
I am willing to work in rural school and complete any further training required.
Any ideas?!
If you are prepared to go anywhere then you should find a position so basically pick your state. I am not sure if any are actively recruiting at the moment (WA just finished). If you dont mind doing relief work then you shouldnt have too much of a problem anywhere but you do need to register with each state separately to get on their books.

You will need to get your qualifications verified by Teaching Australia Skills Assessment first, but your degree plus PGCE will be fine - just get transcripts of everything if you dont already have them.

Good luck!
