Amharc ar fhreagraUnder the Teaching Council Acts 2001-2015 the Teaching Council is, since 2006, the statutory regulator and standards body for the teaching profession in this State.
A key function of the Council is to register teachers and maintain the register of teachers in the State.
The Teaching Council is also the designated authority in this State for considering applications for registration from teachers who qualified in other States.
If Conditional Registration is granted, the Council will inform a teacher of the conditions imposed, the measures required to meet them, and the timeframe within which they must be met. A teacher should communicate directly with the Teaching Council regarding conditional registration issues.
