Teaching in Victoria, Australia.In Victoria, you must be registered with The Victorian Institute of Teaching before you can teach. You can get more info and dowload the registration forms on the website. http://www.vit.vic.edu.au/default.htm (get in early it can take a bit of time) Also, I know of a site with information for teachers in Victoria. http://www.sofweb.vic.edu.au/ Also, mycareer.com.au has some jobs listed. Hope this helps! quote: Originally posted by Linda: Hello, Like lots of people it seems, I am interested in going to Australia to teach for a year or so.

There seems to be lots of pleas, but very few replies! I wanted to do a teaching exchange to Australia, but the only place which we found that did it (commonwealth exchange ...) are no longer taking people as there are very very few Oz teachers who want to come to the UK (not surprisingly!). We eventually decided that it wasnt going to happen, much as we wanted it to.IP: Logged |

If anyone's interested finding out about teaching in New Zealand is quite straightforward with the government site http://www.teachnz.govt.nz The main point of difference from other countries' curriculum policies is the recognition of the Treaty of Waitangi between maori and the crown - which for teachers means an obligation to work towards bi-culturalism.

Dear Katherine, If you're interested in working in Adelaide you will have to register with the Teachers Registration Board of South Australia first (www.trb.sa.edu.au). You will then need to contact the Department of Education in South Australia and apply for employment. You will be sent a letter enabling you to work as a relief teacher. Once you're known in the schools you may be offered a contract. Getting permanency is via a lottery system (well it seams that way!) and is quite hard to get. There is also the Catholic Education System which also offers contracts , relief teaching and permanency etc (www.ceo.adl.catholic.edu.au), and other religious schools that you may find details of via the internet. Cheers, Scott IP: Logged |

Hi Michelle,You MUST pass your NQT year which will give you the QTS an, invaluable experience and the necessary points to move to Australia. Friends of mine have just passed their NQT year and have now decided to apply for a working holiday visa to Australia so they can teach there, get more teaching experience and also experience living in Australia before they make any decisions. If you have 3 years experience then you get the max points fro your occupation.The rule of thumb is the more experience the better! Good Luck. quote: Originally posted by Michelle: Hello.

To anyone working as a teacher anywhere in UK.I am considering going to UK to teach and wondered what life was like as a teacher there. I have taught in Australian school system (Queensland, actually) and know just how horrendous the work load can be and that there often is no time for anything during term time (I am a single mum). Just wanted an opinion. I don't want to work in London. Is there much part time and can you get a work permit for anything less than full time? Anyway, hope to hear from anyone.

I am Irish secondary teacher, born here, trained here and teach here. You dont need Irish language for teaching in secondary schools, but you do need it for primary schools. Teaching positions are quite scarce in Ireland, unlike england and the US, I find it hard getting a job nearby myself. But the there is a company educa.com that run placement in ireland.

Like many other people I am researching ways to teach in another country. Those interested in temporarily teaching in the UK may want to visit www.timeplan.com. They had a booth set up at a career day at my university. The website offers a lot of information. quote: Originally posted by Deborra: To anyone working as a teacher anywhere in UK.I am considering going to UK to teach and wondered what life was like as a teacher there.

[QUOTE]Originally posted by rfbreen: Hi I just found this website. I'm Irish born living in Canada. I'm a canadian trained teacher and I'm hoping to return to Ireland to teach in 2003. To teach in Irish schools you are more than likely required to teach the Irish language. Most Irish trained teachers are almost fluent in the language.I believe there are some avenues where you may be allowed to teach on the provision you do your language qualification at the same time. I haven't been able to find out much else but I do know that the language is essential.

Hi Fiona, My name is Tanith. I am about to start College to do an access course to get into University. My Fiance and I want to move to Australia when I finish Uni and I really want to be a teacher there... However, I cannot make up my mind whether I want to go into Primary School Teaching or Secondary School Teaching. I have been trying to look up unformation on both, for in Australia, but am unable to get any real information. Are you able to shed any light on the education system and it's requirements in Australia for me please? Also, would I be able to get a job there straight from University or will I need to get work experience first? Thanks.
