How Do You Become A Teacher In Australia?
Becoming a teacher in Australia opens a world that is relatively inaccessible to anyone who does not have the proper training. There are specific educational degrees that one must hold to obtain the required teacher registration (equivalent to certification in the United States). The prospective teacher will need a senior certificate (high school diploma) or an adult equivalent, such as an SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) score from a TAFE (Technical And Further Education) college or an adult matriculation certificate, available through night school at various high schools throughout school districts in Australia. Education Step 1 Gain the relevant qualifications for teacher registration by obtaining either a four-year bachelor of education (BEd) or a three-year degree, such as a bachelor of arts (BA) or bachelor of science (BSc). You can then enter an education faculty of a university and complete a graduate educational methodology degree, which will enable you to teach in high school.
