The School Portal is a secure online facility enabling Victorian school principals and their authorised delegates to:
- confirm the current registration status of teachers’ employed at their school
- seek the current registration status of a teacher they may wish to employ
- have edit-access for searching, adding or removing teachers to maintain their ‘All Teachers’ list
- access and complete a recommendation for (full) registration assigned to their school by a provisionally registered teacher
- view any correspondence from us
As a principal, you may wish to give access and authorisation to your delegates to use the Portal (e.g. assistant / deputy principal, HR manager, business manager).
Delegates must seek their login details directly from you (the principal / acting principal) not from us.
Accessing the School Portal
You and your authorised delegates can access the Portal on our homepage using your unique login details and following the prompts.
To retrieve your login details or request a new login as a principal, submit an enquiry form or call the principals hotline on 1300 650 375.
Note: we can only provide login details for the Portal to principals or acting principals.
Checking a teacher's registration status
You can check whether a teacher is currently registered to teach and what type of registration they hold by:
- accessing the register of teachers

- asking to see the teacher's current VIT registration card (valid to the expiry date indicated on the card).
