Australian Professional Standards for Teachers
The Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (APST) are statements that describe the professional knowledge, professional practice and professional engagement required of teachers.
You will use and demonstrate standards when you have (full) registration and undertake an annual renewal process to maintain the standards at the Proficient teacher level.
