Hi just wondering if anyone can help me with tafe courses, we are due to land in perth in January, my daughter is 18 and wants to do primary school teaching, she completed a cache (childcare nvq level 2) course in the UK at college, had we been staying here she would have gone on to complete an nvq 3 in childcare and then onto university to do teacher training. I need to get her enrolled into a course in perth to start February but we are so confused looking through all the courses. We are looking at the west coast institute and there are a number of courses for example certificate III, certificate IV and also diplomas and advanced diplomas, I have no idea what she needs to do. There is then options of childrens services or education which all look like they are possibly what she needs. Is there anyone that can help or maybe someone else that has gone down this route to become a primary teacher. Any help would really be appreciated x

My daughter is interested in teaching and is doing a degree then is hoping to do her masters in Education. Does your daughter have A levels? They can be converted for Uni entry.

To become a primary school teacher you need to complete either a four year Bachelor of Education (Primary or Kindergarten to Year 7) or a minimum of three year degree in any discipline followed by a one year Graduate Diploma in Education (Primary).

Thank you for your reply, she doesn't have A levels, she went straight to college when she finished year 11 here instead of staying on in sixth form, she only has gcse's which is why she was doing two years at college to get the qualifications she needed to go onto uni, I have looked up the bachelor of education which she needs to do for four years, but I am confused as to what pathway she needs to take to get into uni due to not having done A levels.
