Hey there I made the move out to Australia to teach in january! I already had a visa but I found a job advertised on TES online! At the same time as employing me they also employed some other Brits that didn’t have visas and they sponsored them! Mots very rare but does happen! Hope this helps Christina Ingram

Thank you i am just worried that my cash won't last until I get a job i am coming out at the end of May as that is the only time I can leave my job here in the UK! Am hoping to register to work there with the NSW Gov before I come out so that the process is quicker! Understand that jobs there are not normally permanent and will start applying before o leave Uk! Supposw if I can't find a teaching job I could do sow thing else to start with! Any advice on the application process?

Hey guys - I know there are already hundreds of posts on moving so thank you for reading mine!

I am a 28 year old teacher moving on my own so hoping to have people to meet up with when I get there or even someone who can meet before hand and maybe look at renting places with of we get on (rent is so much cheaper when there is more than one hehe) anyway anyone who can point me in the right direction would be really helpful' look forward to hearing from you Christina X

Hey guys, found your posts really promising! Thinking of moving to Sydney at Xmas but was worried as I am moving on my own (I am 25) Did you all find it easy to make friends when you got there? I had visions of turning up to a bar sat like a loner hehe! Hoping that I can meet up with like minded people when I arrive x

Thank you Yash, Sometimes I get the wobbles and wonder if it is the right thing but I dont want to regret not chasing my dream. I would rather regret the things that I do rather than the things that I dont - just scared and nervous. Fingers crossed!

Hey Everyone, I just recently started the application process to move to Oz. Im a primary teacher and so am having to apply for SS to SA. I have dreamt of moving to Australia since I was a little girl and cant believe I am now doing it. Problem is I am going alone! Very nervous about making such a big move solo Just wondering if there is anyone with any advice or similar experiences etc I ideally wanted to wait a few more years to make the move (I am only 23) but with the application process always changing and the declining need for primary teachers , this is now my only chance. Slightly worried about leaving a permanent job that I love and all my family and friends - just because I have this dream! Australia is an amazing country - just hope I am doing the right thing! Anyone who can give me some support/advice please reply not sure that many people make the move alone.
