Early childhood is different from Primary School teacher.
ECT is 0-5 years while Primary is 5-11 because primary school starts from 5 in Australia.

During your PGDE, did you do your teaching practice in a primary school or an early childhood setting?



Thank you for the information. The teaching practice is 3-11 ages. And currently teaching with 7 years experience in government primary school.
If you taught 3-11, that may be classified more of primary though but you can still check out ACECQA and perhaps email them before you pay for the assessment.
Also your experience in primary school may not count if you select Early childhood.
Your experience in prim

Please how do I check the actual cost of vetasses assessment for a specific occupation. The site information is confusing
Re: DIY Guide To Australian Permanent Resident Visa - Part 2 by Orgloan: 3:50pm On Dec 09, 2025
Yes I have, I would assess under the Engineering Technologist.

As mentioned my spouse is Doctor, and considering doing a diploma in occupational health and safety then applying using that ANZCO code. Is that reasonable?


tunlex01:
Have you read the information sheet for Organisation and Method Analyst? Do you meet the qualification and employment requirements?
If yes, you can assess it too but it's not a priority occupation. So it's a gamble

MP or ET are good occupations but they also have a lot of people waiting as well.

the easiest way is to post a screenshot of what you are referring to and we can validate if it's correct or not.
It's full skills assessment!

Are you guys not worry about the housing crisis in Australia?

I hear it's very difficult to even find rent due to the housing crisis. People are having to sleep in their cars etc

Yes, there are concerns over the housing crisis in Australia,

People sleeping in their cars, I think this is extreme. The average wealthy Caucasian Australian will happily sleep in his caravan(car), even though he has 5 bedrooms in his mansion.

The current crisis either affects you as
1. A renter, as you have to pay good money for sub-par rental. I was disappointed by the quality of housing in Australia. Some of the houses be like houses in Ajegunle. In winter, the outside environment is warmer than inside of your house, and in summer, your house is literally an oven.

2. A property owner, houses that were 500k aud. last year December are now around 700K aud and keep rising steeply. Sadly, nobody is building anything. The government is just giving speeches every day, while it is easy to blame migrants.

This is my personal opinion form here onwards.

If you are a couple, and are both professionals., I believe it is manageable & comfortable as both couples can aim for 100k Aud annual pay. So please try to come in as skilled professionals. Indians and Bangladeshis are smiling to the bank as all GP in clinics you go to are mostly staffed by them. Where are the Nigerian doctors?

White South Africans blend in and enter into good organisations with good money.

Electricians, Heavy duty machine operators and mechanics are smiling to the bank in the mines, where are our HND applicants?

My humble 2 cents.

This is my personal opinion.
Your profession is so so in demand and that the pay is literally blood money.
Housing is not your problem. There are houses, it is just that the cost of the houses are overvalued.

Kindly guide me on what to do.
I have about 15 years work experience. No tax clearance and pension documents for these years of work experience. I have been moving steadily from company to another on contract basis. My concern now is that, a sponsor company has informed me that I should provide any of the following:
Tax clearance document, pension and statement of account. I can provide statement of account but tax clearance and pension documents cannot be provided because of the nature of my employment.
I am seeking your opinion on this

I am a trained mental health nurse and I recently moved to Australia with some of my colleagues from the UK and I can categorically tell you house shortage in Australia isn’t real but artificial. For reference I got my house before arriving Australia and non of my colleagues have struggled to find a house to rent. It was even harder for me to secure a house to leave in the UK compared to Australia.

Hi thanks. How have your experience being in AUS? Do you prefer working in the AUS wards compare to the NHS wards? Any plan to return to the UK?

I'm having second thoughts

Uk nursing is so toxic and non supportive. Nursing out here in Australia is supportive and working in the ward out here is better. Return to the UK? Affliction shall never rise again! Australia is far ahead of the UK…. Life style here is better… Pay is okay, good place to raise kids if you have one, houses are spacious and beautiful compared to ancient houses you have in the UK.

Honestly, Nigerian Medical professionals are missing on a goldmine by not migrating to Australia.

Your visa is secured, not tomorrow one new politician changes your visa requirement overnight.

Plus, the pay is blood money in the health sector in Australia.

Even British medical professionals are migrating to Australia.

I believe one day they will open their eyes to see the opportunities they are missing out here. Those that are already here are balling big time making millions of dollars…. Some will say Australia is far to Nigeria but that same person wants to go to Canada. The time to travel to Nigeria from Canada is almost the same time from Australia(Melbourne) to Nigeria.

The wage and lifestyle in Australia is so good. My only regret in life is that I wasted my time in the UK before moving out here.. I wish I had moved out here earlier.

Studying in Australia is more expensive compared to Canada and there is a big age factor in getting admission. Once you are 35 you can’t get post study visa hence isn’t advisable for people in this age bracket to pursue Aussie admission except for PHD. I can help you with some hints… If your dream country is Australia you can go to the Uk to study Nursing for two years if you have a prior degree in any course then you can register with the nursing body in Australia and it is pretty easy for nurses to get work visa or PR in Oz.
What are the chances of a newly qualified UK nurse 2025, with 8yr NHS experience moving to Australia for job?

You only need 450hrs experience if you train in the UK to register with AHPRA…. With UK degree you don’t need to sit for any exams except for English exams.

No not an issue.

It is you overall point that matters, the higher your overall points the better your chances for invitation.
