One of the benefits of a teaching career is the flexibility to develop new skills and engineer a variety of new experiences. One example of this is the ability to transition from teaching primary students to teaching secondary students. It might seem daunting, but you’re not doing it alone. If this is something you’re interested in pursuing, our schools will support you to develop your skills as you make the change.
