Establish a Chartered College of Teachers

Additional Information

Establish a Chartered College of Teachers, to replace the existing 'Royal College'.

Membership of the College would come with QTS / similar appropriate academic qualifications (e.g. MA, PhD, Higher Level Teaching Assistants...). Positions within the College would be appointed by ballot among its members, on a 5-year electoral cycle.

The remit of the College would be to represent the interests of children through the professional development of their teachers. It will champion and disseminate evidence-based research, advising teachers on ways of implementing and adapting practice to ensure the best educational outcomes for pupils. It will form policy in line with these findings and manage the accountability structures of inspection and reporting to parents.

The leadership of the College would be democratically accountable to its members and to the Secretary of State. However education policy decisions should remain the remit of the College.
