    ACCEPTED ENGLISH LANGUAGE TESTS
    The tests and results which are accepted by the NSW Institute of Teachers are listed below.

    3.1 International English Language Testing System (IELTS)
    The IELTS test for academic purposes is an appropriate test for prospective teachers. The Institute requires that the applicant needs to attain a minimum overall score of 7.5 including a minimum result of 8.0 in both the speaking and listening modules and 7.0 in reading and writing. The test is widely accepted as an international standard for English language skills. Testing and locations can be found at http://www.ielts.org/.

    3.2 Professional English Assessment for Teachers (PEAT)
    The applicant must have Band A in each of the four areas: speaking, listening, reading and writing. This test has been developed for teachers intending to teach in the NSW Department of Education and Communities (DEC). DEC requires relevant teachers to undertake the PEAT. The DEC has advised that Band A is required for teaching in government schools. It is available at the University of NSW Institute of Languages. The website is http://www.lang.unsw.edu.au/PEAT/. Only the DEC may refer teachers to undertake PEAT.

    3.3 International Second Language Proficiency Rating (ISLPR)
    The applicant must have a score of at least 4+ in each of the four areas: speaking, listening, reading and writing. This test was originally developed as the ASLPR (Australian Second Language Proficiency Rating). It was developed at Griffith University and is available in a form specifically designed to test language proficiency in the teaching context. The website is http://www.islpr.org.

    4. EXCEPTIONS
    The following applicants generally do not need to complete one of the approved language tests:
    • applicants for whom English is their first language

These countries are: Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Republic of Ireland, United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland), Republic of South Africa and the United States of America
    • applicants who can provide evidence that they have successfully taught in English in a school in a country where English is the main language for a substantial period of time.

    5. CURRENCY OF RESULTS
    The Institute has accepted the advice of the test providers regarding the length of currency of results. Applicants who submit results from IELTS must submit results from a test taken within a period of two years of their application for provisional or conditional accreditation. Applicants who submit results from ISLPR must submit results from a test taken within a period of twelve months of their application for provisional or conditional accreditation. A successful PEAT does not lose currency.
