How to apply for Additional Support Needs registration
To apply for Additional Support Needs registration, you must complete the application for registration in Additional Support Needs and submit it to us with the following documents:
- Copy of ASN award certificate*
- Copy of ASN award transcript (showing the courses/ modules completed during your studies)
*If you are currently studying towards a PGDip or Master’s degree programme in ASN and have met the requirements for the award of the PGCert, you can provide a letter from the higher education institution to confirm this in lieu of an ASN award certificate.
Your application will be assessed by a Registration Case Officer and you will be issued with the decision on your application.
Working towards the Standard for Full Registration
If your application is successful, we will add Provisional Registration in ASN to your GTC Scotland Registration.
All provisionally registered teachers on the Flexible Route must use the provisional registration profile within MyGTCS to record their induction activity as they work towards the Standard for Full Registration.
If you have previously used a paper-based profile you can upload this document in your provisional registration profile on MyGTCS as a learning activity. Once you have uploaded your paper-based profile, you can then create an association with your reviewer (if you have not already done so) and request recommendation for Full Registration on MyGTCS when you are ready. Your reviewer will be able to review the attached profile.
We recommend that you have completed the equivalent of at least 20 days of service before your reviewer completes an observation of your teaching. Your reviewer must complete at least 1 observation of your teaching before recommending you for Full Registration.
