Induction Year GuidanceInduction Year Guidance
The Teacher Induction Scheme (TIS) provides a guaranteed one-year training placement to every eligible student graduating with a teaching qualification from one of Scotland's universities.
The scheme is not compulsory but it allows probationer teachers to be considered for full registration within one school year (190 teaching days), rather than the Alternative Route which normally requires at least 270 teaching days.
