Regulating your profession

Quality regulation leads to quality teachers

Regulating the teaching profession helps ensure registered teachers are skilled, professional, and act responsibly in their duties. It also builds trust and shows the community that teachers meet high standards.

The Queensland College of Teachers (QCT) supports this by registering teachers, ensuring that only those qualified and deemed suitable can work in Queensland schools. 

Teacher registration demonstrates that teachers have the skills, training, and dedication to do their jobs well. It is more than a requirement. It shows a teacher's commitment to students and to quality education.
