COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements (may still be required for placements in 2022)

Students who will be attending placements in schools may need to show evidence of being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 prior to recieiving a placement. This will depend on the requirements of individual schools.

Some students may be asked to provide evidence of all doses of COVID-19 vaccinations and boosters you have received to date when the request email is sent by the School of Education.

The preferred document is your international COVID-19 Certificate, Immunisation History Statement, or any official record written in English or accompanied by a certified translation. The document must contain at a minimum your name, date of birth, the vaccine brand, and the date of each dose. 

If evidence is required by your placement school and you do not provide the evidence or medical exemption documents by the deadline, the placement team may need to arrange an alternative placement for you, which may result in delays with your placement commencement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

  1. Wait to receive a request to submit COVID-19 vaccination evidence, sent by the School of Education to your student email.

  2. Follow the detailed instructions on the Student Immunisation Requirements page to submit the evidence if you are directed that evidence is required.
