    I am a primary teacher looking for work. I do get random days subbing in different schools but its quite irregular. I could be working one or two maybe even a few days a week or I might not be working another week. Also I could be in more than 1 school in the same week. I was put on casual dockets but they have to be stamped by my employer (Dept of Education) who is far away from me! Who do I get to stamp it then?

    I am a secondary school teacher and was in the exact same situation as you last year. I explained to my social welfare office that it would take ages for the Department of Education to complete and post back dockets to me.
    They told me to get the principal/deputy principal of the school where I was working to fill them in amd stamp them. However, I was only subbing in one school, so it might be a little more difficult when you are going between a few schools. Might be no harm to ring your local Social Welfare Office and explain the situation.

    Technically your employer is the school and not the department.

    You get the school (technically the BOM) to do it.

    I'm in the same situation now and I'm 'self-certifying', have been since last February. I was just writing 'N/A Substitute teacher' on them. I actually have little yellow dockets now that only require a signature from myself - they don't require employer certification at all.
