What does your GPA have to be if a teacher?

There's no single GPA requirement to become a teacher. The requirements vary significantly depending on:

* The specific country: Requirements differ greatly between countries.

* The state/province: Within a country, individual states or provinces often set their own standards.

* The type of teaching license/certification: Requirements may differ for elementary school teachers, secondary school teachers, special education teachers, etc.

* The institution granting the license: Different universities and colleges may have different GPA minimums for their teacher education programs.

While some programs may have a minimum GPA (often around 2.5 or 3.0), many focus more on overall performance in coursework related to education, student teaching evaluations, and passing required exams (like Praxis in the US). A high GPA certainly helps with admission to competitive programs and might be a factor in securing desirable teaching positions afterward, but it's not the sole determinant.
