Do you know if this is the case? Do you have specialist language skill? I am currently looking at SA as I didn't think Victoria was an option. Many thanks Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz Hi there, The language I have nominated is French. I taught French weekly as part of the KS2 curriculum and also when I covered other teachers during their PPA. I liked teaching it and am quite confident but I certainly am not an expert! I think as long as you can prove that you have followed a particular scheme (LCP in my case) and have delivered sessions regularly to primary aged children then that's acceptable. I did have to write a piece explaining exactly what i'd done and my the head teacher also had to put forward a statement confirming what i'd claimed. So i'd say if you've done something similar then go for it. But we went through an agent which I would recommend. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeacherClem Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 Any ideas how long it has taken in the past to be assigned a co? We haven't had medicals or police checks done yet because of the wait on visas so won't be a straight grant for us. Just wondering how long it might take to hear from someone.Thanks Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to work your way into a school through doing casual (supply), you don't really apply for a job like here, schools have their regular supply teachers who they call on when more temporary/permanent roles come up. I did a lot of supply in western Sydney as those were the only areas I'd get work from. There's lots of work for SEN teachers though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of talk about teachers desperately needed in the uk and I think a lot of teaching graduates would also disagree with that I tend to agree with Quoll. Primary teachers are often over subscribed in built up areas and cities. Supply work is far from ideal (especially if you want to stay long term and things like buying a house will be on the to do list) and much depends on what area you are in, the school/s and if you can get a foot in the door. My local primary school has a stack (kid you not, its a very big pile) of supply teaching applications at the start of each school year. Teachers will sift out and find one or two they like to use (or have used in the past and got on well) with for their class and those will be the go to first and others probably won't get much of a look in. And that will be the case all year then most likely. I know someone who submitted their CV and has years of experience teaching and has other strings to their bow, they sent their CV to just about every school in a 20km radius. Only got phone calls from a handful of schools and actual work at 2 or 3 of them. Luckily they became one of those 'go to' teachers and had steady work after the first term and they got known at the school but it wasn't easy and they often didn't know till the morning if they would be working and often it was only 1 or 2 days a week or some such. There are so many home grown graduate teachers now and they tend to focus on the cities which of course leads to a big oversupply. And not as many teachers retiring and even if they do, their once permanent jobs are changed to 1 year contracts more often than not as the quota for permanent staff is reduced. So every year you could find yourself having to reapply for the following year (and perhaps not being considered, it does happen) or finding the job no longer exists anyways if the class numbers are down for that year group. Permanent posts are hard to come by and much sought after. People put in years on temp contracts and get no further. The uncertainty of supply work and short term temp isn't good for the mind in the long term I don't think. Working in remote or rural areas you can usually secure a job pretty quickly. I was talking to someone the other day who was complaining her son could not get a job locally but if he went and applied for a job in a rural town (hours and hours from anywhere the town is. I'd not do more than drive through it or stop for gas) there were 3 vacancies they could not fill plus a principal post that was still vacant. So few want to go work rural as they know what it entails and are put off. But apparently some of those schools can be rewarding but also hard work and living rural isn't for everyone. I'd not do it that's for sure. Even 3-4 hours from our city is too far for me. Its a whole lot of nothing in between. Also if you are prepared to consider the indexed lower ranked schools then that might be worth exploring. By ranked I mean this sort of thing linked to below. Not sure if all states have this or anything equating to it? Anyways, its a scale from 1-7. If you look at the 1, 2 or 3 bracket which are the more challenging schools then you may find possibilities. On this list please know that some will be rural/remote as it is state wide. However, there are plenty on the list that are showing 1, 2 and 3 on the scale that are in and around the city or outer lying suburbs of it.

mistryh Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Hi, Just looking to submit my EOI having completed my NQT year! And finally passed the IELTS on my 3rd attempt..Wahoo! (Phew!) Ermm, as I only have officially one year teaching experience, do I select "Yes" for "Related Employement" even though I will not get points for this. For the rest of the jobs I have done prior I selected no. By selecting yes, on the final summary screen it highlights, English Language, Education and Employment as the categories which will award me points. Question: Does that mean I should select No for related employment for my most recent/current employment this past year from sept16 - now? Thanks!

Such towns would be the absolute antithesis of a Pom's "dream" of Australia- but they would be the "real" Australia, doing it tough not the glitzy bits of the GC or SC where all Poms want to go (they're a very very long way from the beach!). Schools in the outback can be very tough (which is why they struggle for staff), foreign staff will probably cop a bit more flak than locals but the state departments do give you credit for having done the hard yards down the track when the plum jobs come up for picking. Doing it as a singleton would be easier than doing it with a family as options for other family members in such places can be less than desirable. Id always recommend that if you have a permanent teaching role in UK that you quite enjoy, that you don't quit your job when the time comes to leave but take a career break and don't sell your house but rent it out then you have a belt and braces approach! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know 2 teachers and their young families who moved to Australia in the last couple of years. The teaching jobs are in Iron Knob, South Australia - population close to 200 and the other family are in a very small town close to Cradle Mountain, Tasmania.

starlight7 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I do wonder why they ask for teachers when young ones here are pouring out of the unis and can't get a permanent job unless they are high school maths and science teachers. They also want teachers with Chinese language skills at all levels but that is about it really. Round Melbourne there would be at least a dozen locals going for every advertised job and you have to get way out into the bush to find anything better.Sent from my iPad using PomsinOz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to be in and around Adelaide and its greater metropolitan area then you can look at the school index and see where the schools are and research areas. You could work wise look as far south as Aldinga and beyond to Myponga, then east over towards Murray Bridge, Mannum and even further down south to Victor Harbor and still be able to live somewhere closer to Adelaide. Just commuting to the schools and towns for work. I'd personally not want to live in any of those towns apart from maybe Victor Harbor. Its much more town like and being on the coast means it gets plenty of tourists and has a busy feel to it and quite a lot of events. Going north you could go as far as Gawler perhaps? If you are a high school teacher and can teach either maths or science it would be a big help in terms of high school posts. They seem to have a bit of a shortage of those posts, even in the city area. Although this can of course change it seems to have been an issue for a few years now and I'm not hearing its improved massively. There is also a huge raft of private schools that if you have a great CV, experience and skills to bring to the table, could be worth applying to.

Kev147 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 For myself I'm hoping that 15 years of experience (7 of those as faculty head) and a Catholic RE certificate might help with employment. That said, I'm hoping to go back to classroom teaching. Management ain't my bag! Too stressful and it takes me away from doing what I enjoy i.e. actually teaching kids history and politics.

Hi Beaty and Joey, (as you have both submitted your EOI's,I have noticed that on the final submit page of the EOI it accumulates the same number of points "The EOI for this subclass is able to be completed. The client's claims equal 65 points" - regardless of if I select yes or no for the one year relevant teaching experience I have.Which makes me think, would my EOI stand out more as I would be selecting that I have some sort of relevant experience?If my points total 65: age 30, degree 15, ielts 20, then I would not be claiming points for experience. I that makes sense. I would ofcourse be able to provide evidence for the one year relevant experience I have. But i would not be required to satisfy the points for the employment as the final points total of 65 does not include this? It looks like I wouldn't be claiming unecessary points for employment if i select yes for that one year?What do you think? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt that it is challenging to find work as many claim, however to be told it is pretty impossible is very demoralising and I'm feeling pretty stuck about how to proceed. I struggled to find my first teaching post in U.K, seven years ago and it was desperately competitive, but once in a school everything slotted into place.

sammy11480 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Yes, you need one of the nominated languages http://www.liveinvictoria.vic.gov.au/visas-and-immigrating/visa-nomination-occupation-lists/visa-nomination-occupation-list-for-victoria#.WY1HvNHTWf0 Even if you got a visa without one of those languages your chances of getting a job in a place that people actually want to live are extraordinarily remote. Australia is well oversupplied with teachers so I'm surprised that it's still on any state list tbh.Hi QuollThanks for all of your input - it's much appreciated. I wonder do you work in education yourself as you seem to know a lot about the climate in schools. I wonder do you know of any UK teachers who have successfully made the move and secured a job?
