Hello,

I am a middle leader and primary school teacher in a BSO (British School Overseas) + COBIS accredited school.

I have an iPGCE, NPQSL (Senior Leadership), will finish my M.Ed (Inclusive Education) in 2025 and will soon receive QTS via the assessment-only route.

I have started looking into moving to NZ to teach. However, I am worried that I will not get through because of my South American passport, even though I have always lived and studied in English-speaking countries and have practically no ties to SA other than my passport. I was wondering if anyone here is of a similar background and/or knows anyone who's gotten through the NZ accreditation + teaching license + job hunting + visa process for NZ and would be able to share their experience and tips.

Thanks :)
