Alternatively, once you have received your renewal fee notice, you can complete an online form and pay your annual fee. You can access the form through your QCT online services account.

Further information is contained in documents. Please select the one relevant to your registration end date.

Forms explained:
You can submit a renewal form online or mail back the form/s supplied to you with your annual fee notice. Your online form is available once you have received your annual fee notice (at least two months prior to your registration end date).

Renewal or Restoration of Full Registration Form:
A renewal application kit is provided in the envelope with your fee notice at the end of your five year period of full registration. This kit contains a printed Renewal or Restoration of Full Registration Form, Renewal or Restoration Declaration Form and Guidelines for Application for Renewal or Restoration of Full Registration. If you decide not to use the online form you can fill in and post your renewal form/s in the reply paid envelope provided.

Renewal or Restoration Declaration Form:
If you decide to submit a paper form rather than filling in and submitting an online form you will only need to complete the Renewal or Restoration Declaration Form if you answer YES to a question in Section 4 – Suitability to Teach on the Renewal or Restoration of Full Registration Form.

Applying via your online services account:
The online Renewal or Restoration of Full Registration Form is accessed via your QCT Online Services account once you receive your fee notice near the end of your five year period of full registration. Only one online form is required to be submitted as the form includes the renewal declaration if it is applicable as a result of your answers in the form. You can also elect to pay your fee online at the end of completing your online form. Your form is then submitted online – there is no need to print it out or mail it to the QCT.

Further information on how to complete forms for renewal or restoration is contained in the Guidelines for Application for Renewal or Restoration of Full Registration.

Application for restoration:
To apply for restoration of your teacher registration, within three months immediately after your registration end date, you must use the same form/s as you would for renewal and pay the appropriate fees (including the restoration fee).

Renewal of Registration:
How often will I have to renew my registration?:
The period of registration is now five years, with renewal of registration at the end of each five year period. However, registration will only remain current if you pay the annual fee for each registration year.

What are the requirements for renewing my registration?:
To renew your registration you must have undertaken continuing professional development (CPD) as required under the Continuing Professional Development Framework of the QCT.

You must also demonstrate your ongoing suitability to teach (a criminal history check will be conducted by the QCT).

If you do not meet the recency of practice threshold, that is, from 2013, if you have not practised as a teacher, whether or not on a full-time basis, for at least 100 days within the five-year period of registration, you will continue to be eligible for full registration. However, your registration will be renewed subject to a ‘Returning to Teaching’ condition.

Renewal – When to Renew:
Who needs to renew their teacher registration?:
All fully registered teachers who are approaching the end of their five year period of full registration will need to apply for renewal of their registration before their registration end date. This date is found on the QCT Registration Certificate and Registration Card and is the registration renewal date that appears on the Register of Teachers.

I moved from provisional to full registration at the end of last year. Why do I have to renew my registration after one year?

The five year period of full registration includes any time spent as a provisionally registered teacher. This means if you moved to full registration at the end of four years of provisional registration, you still have one year remaining of the five year registration period. You will need to renew your registration for another five years after you have completed that one year as a fully registered teacher.

How do I know when I am due to renew my registration?:
The QCT will provide you with information about renewing your teacher registration a few months prior to the end of your five year period of full registration. Your registration end date is located on your Certificate of Registration and your Registration Card. This date is also found on the QCT Register of Teachers adjacent to your name and annual fee due date and is titled ‘registration renewal date’.

Can I renew my registration even if I have not been teaching?:
Yes. There are many fully registered teachers who are currently not teaching. You can renew your registration even if you have not taught for many years or if you are taking a break from teaching for family, career or other reasons. However, if you have not practised as a teacher, whether or not on a full-time basis, for at least the minimum required amount (from 2013 this is 100 days) within the five-year period of registration, your full registration will be renewed subject to a ‘Returning to Teaching’ condition.
