From the Registrar
The annual registration renewal period will open on 11 October for teachers whose registration is due to expire in January 2022.
We appreciate it is a busy time of year for all teachers and we aim to make the renewal process as easy as possible through the online Teachers Portal. It will be a busy time for TRB staff as well, as we review and process about 10,000 renewal applications.
This year renewing teachers will be registering for a five-year term of registration following changes to the Teachers Registration and Standards Act 2004, which came into effect in July this year. Teachers will have a choice of paying their annual fee upfront for the full five years, or for between one and five years. For more information on fees click here.
If you are due to renew, please make sure your application, and all other requirements, are submitted on the Teachers Portal before 31 December 2021. Please ensure you have:
- Completed your 60 hours of professional learning and logged it on the Teachers Portal
- Provided the Board with the required documentation:
- Working with Children Check (WWCC)
- Identity documentation
- Change of address (if required) and
- Responding to risk of Harm, Abuse and Neglect (RHAN) Certificate
If you hold Provisional Registration and you are ready to transition to full Registration, please lodge your Application to transition to full registration as soon as it is completed. This can be submitted before renewal or at the same time as your renewal.
