This is the next step in the review of the Teachers Registration Act 2020.
The Teachers Registration Bill gives effect to the commitment to deliver a modern, child-safe, and nationally aligned teacher registration framework. It also delivers on key Commission of Inquiry recommendations.
It aims to:
- help ensure children and young people are safe while they learn;
- that teachers, including early childhood educators, are high quality and meet professional standards;
- and that the legislative framework is fit for purpose, reflecting modern regulatory practice.
The Bill delivers and expands Commission of Inquiry protections for children to cover all forms of abuse, ensuring our children and young people are safer.
