Hi, I am a secondary school teacher and am ready to submit my application to the QCT. I am still in the UK seeing the acedemic year through, my husband is in Oz already, he has started work in Brisbane and a colleague has said that when he moved over and his wife tried to register with the QCT, her PGCE was not recognised and that she has to go to Uni for a year.

Can anyone shed any light on this please?

 

Hi Welcome to LifeInQueensland,

Sorry i cannot help with your questions but I would suggest you look at our sister site www.pomsinoz.com and look at the threads on there that have been started by teachers about migration and you should be able to find something to help you.

 

Just puuting my registration in - i have 3 year geography degree and 1 year PGCE- when i spoke to them on the phone they said that should be fine ... But hey this is Australia. They dont like on the job Training or 3 year courses....

 

Thank you so much, its reassuring that we have had the samw response, when I spoke to them they said all sounded right but as you say its Australia! Good luck with registration!
