ScotGov: New powers are being proposed that will stop teachers threatened with disciplinary action avoiding a hearing by moving to a job in another area. The proposed powers will give the General Teaching Council Scotland (GTCS) the right to examine competence cases even if a teacher has already resigned from their post.
In the past, teachers have been able to avoid being struck off by moving to a job in another area before their employer has set a date for a disciplinary hearing.
