Are you a qualified early childhood teacher or educator ready to make a change or return to the sector? Are you newly qualified and looking for a way into the kindergarten sector? We’re here to help.

The Department of Education (the department) is supporting qualified early childhood teachers and educators to find positions in priority Victorian services delivering kindergarten programs. To do this, the department is working with recruitment agencies.

Candidates who take up teacher and educator positions could also be eligible for financial incentives from the department of between $9,000 and $50,000. There are two types of incentives available (individual incentives and location incentives) and they have slightly different eligibility requirements. If you receive an incentive, you may also be able to access a relocation support payment of up to $8,000. The Financial incentives to work in early childhood page has more detail about these incentives.
