Each year the Council offers a priority registration process to newly qualified teachers (NQTs) - the NQT fast track registration. Registration is subject to Vetting.
Step 1 –Vetting
If you are already registered with the Teaching Council you do not need to re-apply for vetting for registration purposes.
If you are registering for the first time, please follow the guidelines carefully as applications / documents not correctly submitted will cause delays for everyone and cannot be processed.
- Select 'Begin Vetting Application' below
- Complete and submit the vetting invitation application.
- Upload the required proof of identity and proof of address. Double check that your name and address is consistent on the documents and the documents are dated appropriately.
- Student teachers who have lived overseas for a cumulative period of more than 12 months after the age of 18 will also be required to provide police clearance for each jurisdiction they have lived in. Further information is available at Overseas Police Clearance.
Remember: The Teaching Council can only accept vetting carried out by the Council for registration purposes. Vetting via another body such as a sports club or voluntary organisation cannot be accepted and will delay your registration.
