Teaching in Australia

The Australia school system
Australia has government, Catholic, and independent school sectors across six states and two territories, each managing its own curriculum within a national Australian Curriculum framework (Foundation to Year 10). NAPLAN testing benchmarks literacy and numeracy nationally. Senior secondary students sit state-based exams and the ATAR for university entry.
Roles and salaries
Government school teachers start at around A$75,000–A$80,000 depending on the state, rising to A$110,000+ at senior and leadership levels. NSW and Victoria are typically the highest-paying jurisdictions. Independent schools often offer packages above award rates. Annual increments apply, with accelerated progression available for high-performing teachers.
Working here. What to know
Teaching in Australia requires registration with the relevant state or territory teaching authority (e.g. NESA in NSW, VIT in Victoria). Overseas teachers typically apply for a Skilled Migrant visa (subclass 189 or 190) or a Temporary Skill Shortage visa (482). Teaching is on Australia's Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List, supporting permanent residency pathways.
