Teachers Application

In Australia, people who work or volunteer with children are screened for suitability. As part of this screening process, nominated state agencies examine an applicant’s police information including criminal charges, offences, findings of guilt and professional conduct reports across the applicant’s lifetime.

The screening process also considers the relevant state or territory legislation, which differs in terms of:

the type of history that may prevent a person from obtaining registration or a Working with Children Card (WWCC)
how long the registration is valid for
who is required to be registered.

If an applicant passes the screening processes they may be registered to work with children and/or vulnerable people for a set period of time according to the state or territory that issues the registration.

Where can I get a working with children check?

A single screening unit has been set up in each state and territory to conduct working with children checks and issue the resulting cards, registrations or permits. The following state and territory screening units are the only organisations allowed, under legislation, to conduct working with children checks:

Australian Capital Territory	Access Canberra—Working with Vulnerable People
New South Wales	Office of the Children’s Guardian
Northern Territory	Northern Territory Government
Queensland	Queensland Government Department of Justice and Attorney-General –Blue Card Services
South Australia	Department for Communities and Social Inclusion
Tasmania	Department of Justice
Victoria	Justice and Community Safety
Western Australia	Department of Communities
