If it helps .... have d one a fair bit of investigating migration fares.

Cathay Pacific the only one that worked for us. One way fare and 40 kgs to Melbourne was good value.

Hi Guys - Bob and I (Bear) are both teachers and are off to Australia at Easter.<br><br>I have a job at a school in Sale, Victoria, looking after the boarding house: essentially the job I do here in the UK.

I have taught in Australia on exchange before and have 20 odd years experience. My teaching specialisms are IT and DT, and whilst my new role (Head of Boarding) is essentially management i will keep my hand in for future reference.

I secured the role directly withe the school but have the advantage of PR, VIT Registration and an Australian Head as a referee.

It is still very difficult to get a role from overseas and that final hurdle, via Skype, is often the most challenging. Smart and Hays were interested but schools do like to see you face to face. I found my role through the Australian Boarding Schools Association website and used Seek and Career One subscriptions.

Any sage words of advice would be appreciated.
