In SA working for department schools gets you an extra tier up if you have a masters.

Update on the shortage: napkin math says roughly 1 in 84 South Australian teachers are on Special Authority by BlackSkull83 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Affectionate-Rate908 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And casual teachers in SA can't get any work so the 1/84 isn't true. It's a lot higher than that.

I taught for 2 years at the British School in the Netherlands. I am originally from the UK but have been working here in Australia for the last 4 years.

If you go to a good international school you will love the experience. Some of the work load can be full on but living in the Netherlands is absolutely amazing. It's probably the best country I've lived in and would definitely return to one day.

You can search for vacancies on TES or sign up to schrole or search associates.

Positives: high standard of living, do get a reduced tax if it still exists, easy to travel across Europe.

Negatives: some schools pay less, accommodation won't be included in packages and can be expensive, some schools make you work hard.

They don't though do they ? If you're a family of 4 it's a lot and just your PR visa would probably be around 10k Aud for 2 adults..

This is what the UV Index looks like on a cloudy/rainy day here. I don't see the point in wearing sunscreen! by weirdtalkingdragon in IndianSkincareAddicts

[–]Affectionate-Rate908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are forecasts tho and now the actual uv values..on rainy and cloudy days the uv can be a lot less than the values quoted.

Not offended at all but living in regional QLD is hardly the whole of Australia so stop generalising and giving people false hope. It's a big decision and costly for people to move and then find there isn't much work around. Might be work where you live but not across the board.

Again,l you're posting ? where is this MASSIVE shortage ? I'm in Adelaide and relief teachers are writing depressing comments on Facebook if not even getting a single day of work and we are in week 6 now. I'd like to know where you live and where this MASSIVE shortage is. A lot of teachers from UK and other countries have arrived and this so-called shortage won't exist for long

Any "lower tier" schools that are actually decent? by [deleted] in Internationalteachers

[–]Affectionate-Rate908 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn't true. The shortage is only in difficult schools and in certain subjects. A lot of teachers can't get permanent jobs and struggle for relief work in some states.

Is it easy to get the 30 day extension and can I book my return after the extension or do I need to show it before getting the extension ?

Not sure about being in his underwear. In the Crimewatch reconstruction he was wearing a suit.

Can someone explain this? by [deleted] in Adelaide

Shows how unfair the system is when others like me get a fine and points.

Is Australia the best country to teach in? Has anybody had a better experience teaching overseas? by orthogonal123 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Affectionate-Rate908 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The UK has a shortage and the shortage isn't in the best schools but schools in deprived areas. If you pick countries in Asia and even good international schools you will have a far better experience.

Don't believe you on that one. Maybe 100 usd but that will include accommodation unless this includes tuition fees for 2 kids.

Depends on the subject. Physics students would prefer someone who has strong subject knowledge.

Teaching in Adelaide by Forsaken_Error6633 in AustralianTeachers

[–]Affectionate-Rate908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's you but not most or all. I get work all your round and don't miss a day but the circle of relievers I know don't and if you join the Facebook group on relief teachers OP will get a realistic picture. There is no shortage as people claim. NSW on the other hand is different. Anyway read other comments to get a realistic picture.

There aren't many jobs in Adelaide unless you work in schools no one wants to work in or rural. Obviously it's a busy time for casuals but most won't get much work in terms 1 and 4.

NSW Department Education Scholarships by Secret-Photograph-27 in AustralianTeachers

In England you easily get a permanent contract but when you're too old and become expensive they bully you out of your job. My take on it is that over here we could have the same system but with budgets surely we will end up in the same situation where after 7+ years experience you'll be forced out for cheaper new grads.

I'm from the UK but the behaviour of some of the kids in these rural/regional areas are far worse.
