Geordielass44, I am not convinced that is accurate. Perhaps you were told incorrectly or maybe AITSL has changed the guidelines since then.
According to AITSL, you need either:
1) An initial teacher education qualification of at least one year full-time study (or part-time equivalent) at the higher education level that includes a minimum of 45 days of supervised teaching practice with students in a school setting, and a formal post graduate qualification in special education of at least one year in duration at the higher education level following the completion of the initial teacher education qualification. Applicants relying on a postgraduate special education qualification to, in-part, meet the professional criterion must have completed a minimum of 45 days of supervised teaching practice in a school setting as part of their initial teacher education qualification to meet the professional assessment criteria.
OR
2) An undergraduate initial teacher education qualification with a specialisation in special education of at least one year full-time study (or part-time equivalent), at the higher education (university) level that includes a minimum of 45 days of supervised teaching practice with students within a special education setting.
The way I read it, you only need 45 days supervised teaching in a special education setting if you completed your teaching degree as an undergraduate degree. Obviously for both options, the applicant needs to have a full four years of university education, resulting in the equivalent of a bachelor degree, which conandviv obviously does. This means if you did a post-grad qualification in special education, your skills would likely be positively assessed.
I know you're looking at a few different agents, which is a good idea! Best of luck
