Clarification of Adult Literacy/Numeracy teacher classification

Clarification of Adult Literacy/Numeracy teacher classification

Last December, the Australian Bureau of Statistics released a separate occupational code specifically for adult literacy and numeracy teachers. A re-release of the OSCA classification will take place on 28 July 2025. The re-release will clarify the Adult Literacy/Numeracy Teacher occupational code by removing the exclusion clause about people working in VET and TAFE.

Details of the current code can be found here: Occupation 259931 Adult Literacy / Numeracy Teacher | Australian Bureau of Statistics. The Hotline will provide a new link to the reworded code in our next edition of Literacy Links. We would like to thank the ABS for again being so responsive.
