The Standard for Full Registration
The Standard for Full Registration (SFR) sets out what is expected of new teachers during their probation period, providing a professional standard against which the decision on whether to grant full registration is made.
Its three main purposes are:
- to provide a clear and concise description of the professional qualities and capabilities teachers are expected to develop during their probation or induction year
- to provide a professional standard against which reliable and consistent decisions can be made on the fitness of new teachers for full registration with GTC Scotland
-
to provide a baseline professional standard which will apply to all teachers throughout their careers
The SFR builds on the Standard for Initial Teacher Education and the concept of Continuing Professional Development (CPD), which extends from Initial Teacher Education through to probation and the whole of a teachers' career.
