Teacher registration

[hazel and dave]

HI Julie,

Congrats on your visa. I've trawled through all the info on the victoria registration website, the following seems to be the requirements: 4 year teacher training (either degree and post grad or Bed) with atl east 45 hours observed teaching in that time, records of everything and references from emplyers - there was absolutely no reference to length of sevice. I would advise checking out the WA teaching reg website, they are really good and very self explanatory. Much easier than in the Uk!
Good luck!

I hope you can help.

I am thinking of coming to Oz to teach. I have been teaching maths for about 9 years now and am looking for a new challenge. Can anyone suggest what areas of Oz to go for and any pit falls to look out for.

I should have a lot of refernces and docs but I am unsure about what the 'transcript' is. Is it the outline for the degree course i studied?

Hi,
I wasn't sure either, but 'phoned my old uni - trying to sound like I knew exactly what I was on about - and they ofered me a brief or full transcript. I asked what the difference was (obviously it was cost!) and they just said a full transcript will provide a far more detailed picutre of your courses and attainment level. I went for full becuase there is no doubt that it will be of use in the future. Good luck.
