Teachers' Registration (Scotland) Rules

The Teachers' Registration (Scotland) Rules 2007 (pdf) provide information on:

  • the application process and what each applicant needs to provide
  • the types of teacher registration which are available
  • the requirements of teachers during the probationary period
  • The Registration Fee 
  • The Register of teachers

It is expected that these rules will be useful for the following audiences:

  • applicants for registration
  • registered teachers
  • schools and professional associations
  • Scottish Government Teachers Division
  • HMIE Inspectors of Schools
  • employing authorities
  • those members of other professions, and the public more generally, who have an interest in the professional registration of teachers
