Supervisors

Policy Documentation﻿ - New Scheme Teachers
As the supervisor of a new scheme teacher, you play an important role in their professional development. The following documentation provides the latest information regarding ACCREDITATION and MAINTENANCE. //Please note that the July 2010 version should replace any existing printed copies of the procedures.//

Gaining Accreditation - New Scheme Teachers
Every new scheme teacher is to gain accreditation. Permanent teachers have 12 months, casual and temporary teachers 5 years. As their supervisor you are to complete a T1 report.

Maintenance of accreditation - New Scheme Teachers
Every new scheme teacher is to complete a T2 report at the end of their 5 year period of maintenance. As the supervisor of a new scheme teacher you must be aware of the requirements they must meet to maintain their accreditation.
 * The T2 report is completed by the new scheme teacher.**

How can you help?

 * As their supervisor, allow the opportunity for new scheme teachers to have professional learning opportunities that are institute registered.
 * Use TARS meetings to check in on the hours that they have completed and where they need to look for more courses.
 * In the final year of the maintence period (every fifth year) use your TARS meetings to ensure that they are working to complete the T2 report.

Who signs off the T2 report?
The principal is required to verify the T2 report in two places: Page one and section 1b on page five.

//Note: A soft copy of the T2 report is available on the MAINTENANCE page.//

The T Report
This report is used for two occasions:
 * For existing teachers that are wanting to get their Teacher's Certificate. (ie. teachers that graduated prior to 2004).
 * For New scheme teachers that gained their accreditation as a temporary teachers but have received their first permanent appointment.
