The Teaching Council is the body with statutory responsibility for the registration of teachers including the recognition of qualifications. I understand that the person in question has already been in contact with the Teaching Council and has been requested by the Council to apply for registration using the application form PRQA 01. As each application for registration is considered on its own merits any query relating to a particular qualification should be addressed directly to the Council. As the Council is an independent body, it would not be appropriate for me to intervene in individual cases. The matter should be taken up directly with the Council.
