Since 28 March 2006, a fully qualified teacher in either the primary or post primary sector must be registered with the Teaching Council, the independent statutory body, which regulates the teaching profession.

For registration to take place, an individual must satisfy certain criteria, including criteria relating to academic qualifications. I understand that a registration application has been made to the Teaching Council in respect of the individual referred to by the Deputy. Any queries in connection with the application should be made directly to the Teaching Council by the individual concerned. I do not have any role in the matter of teacher registration.
