When you have non-practising
registration and you want to return to
teaching, before you can commence
teaching you must contact VIT and
apply to return. Before you do this
here's the question you need to ask
yourself: Will I be able to meet my
requirements before my return to
teaching period runs out? What is the
return to teaching period and what are
your requirements? Your return to
teaching period starts on the day your
application is approved and ends at least
12 months later on the nearest September 30.
The return to teaching period will
vary depending on when it begins. Say you
start your return to teaching period at
the start of the year in January. Go
forward 12 months past January the
following year and then go to the
nearest September 30. That's your return to
teaching period - approximately 20 months.
Or, say you tell VIT you're returning to teach
later in the year, around July. Go forward
12 months past July the following year
and then go to the nearest September 30.
That's your return to teaching period -
approximately 14 months. And what do you
need to have done in that time? You need
to have completed 20 days of teaching or
equivalent practice and 20 hours of
standards referenced PD which includes a
special needs component. So you need to
teach 20 days during your return to
teaching period. But to make the PD part
easier to achieve your 20 hours PD can
include anything you've done in the 12
months prior to returning. So let's recap:
when you want to return to teaching you
must contact VIT. Then you must be able
to meet your requirements during your
return to teaching period. If you don't
meet your requirements your registration
will expire. If you want to reapply for
registration you'll need to meet the
current requirements which are four
years of higher education study
including at least one year of a
teaching qualification.
So if you're ready to return to teaching
contact VIT and once your request is
processed you will receive your
returning to teach card in the mail.
