DISCLAIMER: The
teacher list has been made available as a public service. Teachers are
recognised on the list in a specific category of VMTA membership, and listing
does not imply VMTA recommendation. VMTA has taken all reasonable steps to
ensure that information on the list is correct but accepts no responsibility
for the accuracy of the information.
WORKING WITH CHILDREN CHECKS
After June 30 2010, by law, anyone
who works with or teaches children in Victoria under the age of 18 in either a
supervised or unsupervised capacity is required to hold either a current
Working With Children Check (WWC) or a registration with the Victorian
Institute of Teaching (VIT). In this VMTA Directory listing of members,
the acronyms WWC and/or VIT appear next to the names of those teachers who have
one of these two checks/permissions and the acronyms indicate that these are
the teachers who are legally able to teach children under the age of 18.
The names of other teachers, who only teach adults and therefore do not
require the check, appear on the website also, however the letters WWC or VIT
will not appear after their names.
Whilst VMTA endeavours to keep this information up to
date as much as possible, the onus is on the individual member to supply a copy
of either the WWC Check or VIT registration to VMTA. It is an offence
under the legislation for an agency to be reckless as to whether the worker has
a current assessment notice for WWC or for VIT registration, therefore VMTA
will not put the letters WWC or VIT next to a member’s listing on VMTA’s
directory, unless VMTA has proof that the member has the relevant check or
registration.
Any VMTA members who have a Working With
Children Check or Victorian Institute of Teaching registration, but who do not
yet have the appropriate acronym next to their names in this VMTA Directory
listing, should forward a copy of their checks to the VMTA office as soon as
possible and the acronym will be added.
