Amberamber 0 Posted March 2 I know this is a long shot but to become a Early childhood Teacher in Australia, you need a degree such as Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood Teaching). Does anyone happen to know the UK equivalent? I cant get past this in my research, can't seem to find out, I know you need skills assessing but I'd rather try find out what is the equivelnt before signing up to the commitment and costs of a degree- I don't want to pick the wrong one.

MARYROSE02 2,069 Posted March 3 I did a little Googling - not sure if this site has some of the info you need. I assumed that the UK degree would be very similar to the Aussie one. https://www.smartteachers.com.au/node/90 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Each state manages its own education system - have you tried checking the individual states' websites?

Yes - but one of those years needs to have included actual teaching practice (like a PGCE in the UK). You can either do a taught 4 year eduation degree (with school placements) or a 3 year degree and the one year PGCE Be careful that you do either a PGCE or full 4 year batchelors of education, there are numerous other qualifications which the UK accepts that are not considered equivalent in the AUS visa lottery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
