Teaching is one of the best, most satisfying and worthwhile of the professions. It is also highly demanding and challenging.
Despite the government’s decision to remove the requirement for all teachers to hold qualified teacher status (QTS) in schools in England, the NASUWT is quite clear that children and young people are entitled to be taught by qualified teachers. We have maintained our belief that QTS should be the benchmark for teacher professionalism and that when parents send their children to school they have a right to know that they are being taught by qualified teachers.
We believe that the removal of the requirement on schools to recruit qualified teachers undermines the status of the profession and compromises the quality of educational provision.
