Graduates in their final semester of studies may lodge an application for Teacher Registration. Please find the application form and guidelines here.
All students prior to graduating from an initial teacher education (ITE) program must pass the Literacy and Numeracy Test for Initial Teacher Education (LANTITE).
A paperclip symbol appears in the application indicating the sections of the forms requiring supporting documents.
All supporting documents must be a correctly certified copy of the original document. All required documents other than the original must be certified copies. All copies must be certified by the same person, whether that is a Justice of the Peace or Commissioner for taking Affidavits or Notary Public or Proclaimed Police Officer.
All supporting documents must be in English. Documents not in English must be translated by a translator accredited by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI). Documents not in English and the translation must be lodged with the application form.
