When to apply
Applications for approval as a Teacher Accreditation Authority (TAA) are due by 31 March 2019 for:
- TAAs of non-government schools with registration that expires at the end of 2019
- new TAAs of proposed non-government schools seeking to begin operating in 2020
- new TAAs of early childhood education centres.
On 1 January 2016, a new regulatory framework for approving TAAs for non-government schools and early childhood education centres became effective.
Under transition arrangements, non-government schools seeking initial or renewed registration to commence from 1 January 2020 are required to have a TAA approved under the new framework.
The requirements and processes for approval as a TAA under the Teacher Accreditation Act 2004 are detailed in the Guidelines for the Regulation of Teacher Accreditation Authorities for Non-government Schools and Early Childhood Education Centres (‘the TAA guidelines’).
