Removal from the Teacher Induction Scheme

If your final profile contains a recommendation from your employer that your Provisional Registration should be removed, GTC Scotland will write to ask you if you wish to challenge this recommendation.

Your employer will have completed a Case Overview Report to support their recommendation and this will be sent to you together with a form. You must fill in this form to indicate if you wish to challenge the recommendation.

You must reply to us within 28 days. If you decide to challenge the recommendation, we will arrange a Full Hearing.

For more information, please see the guidance and documents below.
