Hi there, If you are coming to NSW you will need to register on the NSW Department of Education teachers site - there's an online application form - you can start the process for over in the UK. (If you can't find the site - let me know - i'll send it on). They'll want evidence of quals and a statement of service etc. They've passed a new teachers' act of 2004 - basically means that any teacher who has not been in the system in NSW for the past 5 years, needs to undergo an accreditation process (yep - more shifting of paperwork and an interview). I'm a Queensland teacher and undergoing that process at the moment - more a nuisance than difficult. May be worthwhile becoming familiar with the syllabuses - google the 'board of studies' for the relevant states. Good luck with it all
