Introduction
GTC Scotland launched the new MyGTCS platform in August 2025. The new platform brings together the existing MyGTCS, provisional registration profiles and MyPL. It was rolled out to all provisionally registered teachers and their supporters in August, and will be followed by a rollout to all teachers from early 2026.
This staged launch will allow us to respond to feedback on the new platform and ensure the best experience for users. MyGTCS will continue to develop over time to better meet registrants’ needs.
If you have any questions after reading the following guidance, you can submit these using the feedback form at the bottom of the page.

Provisional Registrants
The new MyGTCS platform has launched to all registrants who hold a Provisional Registration. Invite links have been sent to these registrants to activate their new accounts.
From August, all provisionally registered teachers have the same induction recording experience, and those who support them only need to use one system.
The new platform provides provisionally registered teachers with a simplified method of recording their progress as they work towards Full Registration.
Reviewers and supporters
The new MyGTCS platform has launched to all registrants who hold a Provisional Registration. As a supporter, reviewer or observer of provisional registrants, you do not need to take any action now.
Experienced teachers with the Standard for Full Registration continue to be central to the induction process. We rely on teachers to ensure that fair decisions are made to award full registration. We know that teachers take their responsibilities in this regard seriously. This is key to trusted teaching.
Feedback
The development of this new platform is informed by both formal and informal engagement with and feedback from teachers, including provisionally registered teachers, their supporters and probation managers.
We held service design workshops and interviews to inform the design of the new platform, and ensure that it better meets registrants’ needs.
