Victoria's New Teacher Incentive Scheme Targets High-Demand Subjects
Victoria's Department of Education has published the guidelines for the Initial Teacher Education Priority Subject Incentive Scheme, covering the period from 2022 to 2027. This scheme aims to encourage students to pursue teaching in high-demand subjects, specifically in areas like 'teachers pay teachers' and 'minecraft education'.
The scheme focuses on subjects identified as priorities in Victoria's education sector. It provides financial incentives for students commencing Initial Teacher Education (ITE) courses in these subjects from 2022 onwards, including those related to 'student loans'. The incentives will continue until 2027.
The Department of Education manages this scheme as part of its role in developing and implementing policies and initiatives related to teacher incentives and education support in Victoria.
The Initial Teacher Education Priority Subject Incentive Scheme is now open for students planning to pursue teaching in high-demand subjects, including 'teachers pay teachers' and 'minecraft education'. The scheme runs until 2027, offering financial support to encourage more students to enter these critical teaching areas.
