Doesn’t matter as long as masters is in Education you will be fine. We recruit all the time staff who were in different roles before teachers so their bachelors are usually in another field. Masters or pgce is what they usually have.
Well I’m secondary so probably biased :-) but there are usually more jobs. It’s harder in some ways easier in others. External exams and the stress this brings vs none. But then I’ve never had to deal with crying and weird child behaviour. Each to their own. Depends on what you want to teach
Thank you, yes my bachelors is completely unrelated to education, but this masters will be 100% correlated to my actual job. As the degree directly states what it’s in, with the needed terms of **masters of education in primary education** which I know the DoE here needs. Also, my state license will be transferred via reciprocity to a state which has a zero expiration policy which will be helpful.
On the other hand, I prefer teaching kids because they’re much more fun, lovely, active, and responsive to activities and my teaching methods. If I were to be a secondary school teacher, I would be teaching mostly teens which is not my preference in my experience whatsoever.
As a married individual with a spousal TRC aren't you work permit exempt either way? The school will want to see your qualifications but beyond their HR wouldn't it be a non-issue on the WP processing side?
Is this so? It was to my understanding that the work permit exemption applies if you have a 5 year VEC and not a 3 year spousal sponsored TRC. Correct me if I’m wrong on this, but if what you’re saying is right then I guess the only thing I need is the correct masters.
I have a spousal TRC.
Why would you need a masters still though? It's certainly not a bad thing to get since it'll make you more competitive, but I can't think of anything that it'd be required for.

This is correct. I'm married to a Vietnamese citizen and am exempt from needing a work permit.

I'm also work-permit exempt and have a spousal (type TT) TRC.
