Our union is advocating for an urgent review of Queensland’s laws underpinning teacher registration.
Last updated in 2019, the Education (Queensland College of Teachers Act) 2005 requires amendment to address significant registration issues affecting staff across the sector, including:
- early childhood teachers;
- staff delivering First Nations Language and Culture programs;
- teachers in independent schools who would like to pursue certification as Highly Accomplished or Lead Teachers (HALT); and
- teachers who are subject to disciplinary proceedings.
