Re: Why not the GTP?
The Graduate Diploma in Education (Dip Ed) is an Australian qualification and is the same as the PGCE. I understand that you can study this externally at Charles Sturt University. Might be worth looking at their website.

Thanks for your help Briar; interested by your response above that it is the same as the PGCE, am i right in thinking that if i changed my tactics in the UK and did do a PGCE in stead of a GTP then i could register in Australia and (job offers permitting) get straight to work rather than having to do any other 'top-up courses' or additional aussie training? is that right?
