 TEACHER EXCHANGE

Teacher Exchange Programs operate in multiple states and territories, often in several formats. These are especially good if you don’t want to give up your current position; can [by agreement] swap accommodation, even transport and usually have additional support throughout the whole experience, even though there may be variations between different programs. For states and territories not included below, we can only suggest checking with education departments and even unions.

We highly recommend this process based on our own experience.
