The Teacher Induction Scheme

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 which normally requires at least 270 teaching days.

GTC Scotland, in partnership with the Scottish Government Education Department, is responsible for the administration of the scheme.

Benefits

The Teacher Induction Scheme offers eligible probationers a number of benefits:-

• A guaranteed one year training post
• A maximum class commitment of 0.7 full time equivalent
• Dedicated time set aside for professional development
• Access to an experienced teacher as a nominated probationer supporter
• A consistently high quality probation experience
• A good salary which compares well with other professions

Full details on carrying out the TIS are available on our dedicated Probationer Teacher Scotland website.
