I would avoid Teaching Australia based on this thread: http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/migration-issues/234781-immigration-advisory-service-have-they-gone-bust.html (they're linked with Immigration Advisory Service on page 3 of the thread)

Thanks MaggieMay24 - I was looking for something specific about them on this site so thanks for pointing that out. I can't believe we've wasted 6 months and £1200 - but I'm not letting them get away with this - not by a long shot.

I've never heard of them have you got a link?

Yes the link is: http://www.teachingaustralia.co.uk/

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this forum and am wondering if anyone can offer some advice. Has anyone heard of an agency called Teaching Australia? They are based in London and although they aren't a migration agent they seem to have the MARA logo on one of their pages but I can't find them registered on the MARA website. We have already paid them some fees but we're now a bit concerned at the idea that they may not be all they say they are. I'm hoping that someone out there in this forum will have heard of them or have used them - or at least know someone who may have used them. Any help you can throw our way would be grand. We're just worried that we've wasted all this money and several months and nothing is going to come of it.

Thanks!

You can try applying, but most advertisements for teaching positions stipulate that you must have the right to live and work in Australia.

 

Jobs for the next year are mainly advertised between June and September, with most being filled by October. However, if you are a maths or science teacher, then you may still be able to pick up something.

 

Remember that you must also be registered with the TRB in the state that you wish to teach, this can also take a number of weeks.

Hi - just a question. Have you tried applying on the 189 yet? My hubby is a primary school teacher and we were told that we most likely wouldn't be able to apply on the 189 because Primary teacher is not on the SOL. Any suggestions?
