Your RTT condition checkup
Why am I doing this?
Teachers with an RTT condition have declared they have not met recency of practice (teaching for 100 days) in a previous five-year renewal period. An RTT condition does not imply a reduction in status or credentials as a registered teacher.
The RTT condition simply ensures that teachers who have had a significant absence from teaching (or have had irregular contact with schools) have their knowledge and skills brought up to date.
This helps maintain the integrity of the profession and helps teachers feel more confident as they return.
What is the RTT program?
