Specialist teaching areas

Applicants for specialist teaching areas such as Languages and Instrumental Music are required to undertake an additional proficiency assessment to confirm their eligibility for employment in these areas.

Languages

Due to the Queensland Government's commitment to quality language studies in schools the department currently has a high demand for Language Teachers particularly in rural, remote and regional schools across Queensland.

A request for a Languages proficiency interview should be indicated on the Application for Teacher Employment Form.

Information about the Languages Proficiency Assessment is provided in the Languages Other Than English Proficiency Assessment Overview.

Enquiries regarding Languages assessment processes or the Languages curriculum should be directed to the Queensland LOTE Centre, by email or telephone (07) 3360 7500.

Instrumental Music

Applicants for Instrumental Music Instructor positions, including applicants who are also applying to teach classroom music, will have their instrumental music proficiency assessed by panellists with specific instrumental expertise.

All applications for an instrumental music proficiency assessment should be sent to:
