    It depends on your state and country. Ask the Department of Education in your area. I am a secondary school teacher and have done some work in a primary school in Australia. It is not so easy. Being the teacher of a primary class requires different skills. For example, student management is very different; you have your own class for most of the day. However, I survived and learnt a lot that helped me with my secondary teaching.
