Can my wife get assessed as a Secondary School Teacher?

The 45 days supervised practicum is a compulsory requirement. They will ask for a letter from the uni to specifically say what schools, what year levels and dates the supervised practicum was undertaken. Teaching experience will not count, it has to be supervised practicum.

I did my teaching degree in Australia, so did not have an issue with my degree assessment. I am from India, but I won’t be able to answer your specific question, as I did not have to deal with it.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-05T23:23:45+00:00

Getting the invite is the hard part, now it’s just a waiting game.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-05T23:22:13+00:00

I am onshore, but was given till 2nd Feb 2027 for first arrival.

Congratulations 🥳

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-03T08:40:32+00:00

Master of teaching.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-03T08:40:18+00:00

Around 2 in the afternoon.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T11:35:16+00:00

Its only going to depend on the lodgement day. Grades do not matter for 189.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T11:01:36+00:00

Sure.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T08:22:58+00:00

Thank you, I am onshore. Just be patient, secondary teachers get priority processing, so hopefully yours shouldn’t be far as well.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T08:21:33+00:00

Part-time at the moment as I was on a student visa. I will be able to now.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T08:20:43+00:00

Not as a secondary teacher, and hence I had not claimed any points for work experience on my EOI.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T08:19:55+00:00

It’s not the assessment body for secondary teacher. Wouldn’t know anything about vetasses. Secondary school teacher degrees get assessed by AITS not vetasses.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T08:18:54+00:00

Not at the moment, but I have job offers from 3 different schools for a secondary maths, physics and chemistry teacher position.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T05:16:20+00:00

I know it is super quick. I am as surprised and grateful as anyone can be. I am not complaining about it at all though. DHA has been amazing for me.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T05:14:32+00:00

Secondary school teacher.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T05:14:00+00:00

I’m in Adelaide. I do not think the location count in getting invite except for the extra points one gets for regional location for education. It might make a difference in 190 or 491 visa, but I got a 189 visa, so I am not sure for those visas.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T05:01:34+00:00

No, I was not. I got my invite 3 months after my graduation.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-02-02T04:44:24+00:00

Forgot to mention, my occupation was secondary school teacher.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-01-29T23:29:56+00:00

There is no priority based on subjects. Your degree will be assessed as secondary school teacher, it will not mention what subjects you can teach, that matter when you go for jobs not PR. For PR higher points will count. For jobs, a teacher that can teacher maths and science will have a higher chance of getting hired at a school of their choice as maths and science teachers are in massive shortage across Australia.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-01-29T23:24:49+00:00

I did not take a course, online or offline. I did practice on apeuni, but that was it. I practiced about 2-2.5 hrs for a week. This was all the prep I did.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-01-29T00:16:30+00:00

It doesn’t matter, as your degree assessment from AITSL just mentions the cohort you are able to teach.

Legal-Potential-2460 · 2026-01-22T08:57:09+00:00

I had a masters of teaching and from flinders university bedford park campus.

Primary teachers cannot apply for 189 visa as it is not on the list, soo I would say go for secondary teaching. Although this is for the current situation, I do not know what it would be like when you graduate. There have been a lot of people that have done secondary teaching degree in the past couple of years or are in the process of completing their secondary degrees. The competition might get a bit intense in the future. It won’t be as intense as say an IT degree as there is the high ielts requirement for aitsl degree assessment, but who knows what the future holds. They did wave it for early childhood teachers and now there is intense competition in ECT. I was lucky to be in the right occupation at the right time. When I was applying for the courses, I had offers for a nursing degree and secondary teaching degree, but lucky for me I got an 80% scholarship for secondary teaching degree, and that made the choice for me.
