ChrisinBris Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hi all,I am hoping someone can help out from the Queensland perspective, I see so much about South Australia on the website...My wife and I are looking to come to Brisbane. The company I would work for would cover my 457 as well as hers.She has a Masters Degree in English Literature and has taught at secondary schools for about 3 years. She does not have a teaching diploma (eg HDE or PGCE).What would she have to do in order to be able to apply for a teaching position?Thanks in advance.

Sean Udal Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Hi,My wife is the same. She has 13 years teaching experience but no HDE or PGCE. She has a 4 year B.Mus degree and diplomas from the UK.We contacted the Queensland department of Education and have downloaded the relevent forms to register with them. This involves a valuationon her experience. Her IELTS scores are great, so hopefully all will be OK.I started a group on Facebook called South African teachers moving / moved to Australia The group has lots of links and other info.The direct link is http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=10996018090CheerioSean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisinBris Posted July 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Thanks Sean,Would I be right in saying that she needs to do the IELTS, and then simply apply with Queensland department of education?Could it be that simple?PS : I grew up in East London, love that city...
