Permission to Teach Application & Statement of Acknowledgement Letter Request
IMPORTANT: QUT Policy allows for two
placements to occur whilst undertaking a Permission to Teach contract, and students must be in their final year of study for this to be approved. Students who are not in their final year of study who have been granted PTT will be required to take leave from their PTT school during the placement period specified in the PEx calendar. No changes or modifications to PEx dates will be allowed.
The PEO
must
be notified of your intention to undertake PTT, in writing to peo@qut.edu.au or through submission of this application, by the end of Week 1 Semester 1 or six weeks prior to placements beginning in Semester 2.
Due to the nature of the placement whilst completing PTT, QUT strongly recommends that students complete their final placement at their PTT school. Approval from the Professional Experience Office must be given for any student wishing to complete placement in their PTT school. Please contact the PEO if you have any further enquiries at peo@qut.edu.au.

Acknowledgement
By submitting this application, I understand:
Under QUT PTT Professional Experience Guidelines, I am only able to complete
two
placements at the school in which I hold Permission to Teach. It is my responsibility to discuss this with my employer. I acknowledge I will be required to undertake placement elsewhere if I have more than two placement to complete whilst on a PTT contract or if I have already completed a placement at this school. There are no exceptions to this policy.
If I have more than two placements to complete whilst on a PTT contract, the Professional Experience Office will source my placement school as per QUT Placement Guidelines.
Due to the strict requirements of the final placement, QTPA and QPERF, I cannot undertake my final placement in a special school, flexi/alternative school or vocational school.
I must undertake placement according to my course requirements, i.e. ED49/EU40 placements must be undertaken in Prep to year 6. ED59/EU50 placements must be undertaken in a Secondary setting.
I must complete all placements as per the dates outlined on the PEx calendar, regardless of my Permission to Teach status. There are no exceptions to this policy.
I am not eligible to apply for Advanced Standing for any Professional Experience or QTPA units based on my Permission to Teach status.
It is my responsibility to discuss and understand the details of my employment with my employing school, including payment whilst on placement.
If I undertake a placement at the school in which I hold PTT, I may not receive full time supervision from a Supervising Teacher. I may be required to continue to deliver my regular teaching load during placement. I am required to receive regular supervision and written and verbal feedback from a mentor and/or Supervising Teacher.
I am required to submit an interim report and final report on their due dates, and meet all APSTs to be deemed satisfactory on my final report.
If at any time I require support or advice, am struggling with my placement or PTT, I can contact my Unit Tutor or the Professional Experience Office at peo@qut.edu.au.
The Professional Experience Office, in consultation with the Academic Leads-Professional Experience, have the right to deny placement in schools that do not meet the required placement criteria.
The PEO must be notified of my intention to undertake PTT, in writing or through submission of this application, by the end of week 1 Semester 1 or six weeks prior to placements beginning in Semester 2. If I already have a confirmed placement with another school, the Professional Experience Office has the right to deny placement in the PTT school.
