Sign in to check a teacher’s record

You can search for a teacher’s record using their last name and date of birth.

A teacher’s record includes their qualifications and also tells you if they:

• failed their induction or probation
• are prevented from teaching by a prohibition order
• were sanctioned by the General Teaching Council for England (GTCE)

Qualified teacher learning and skills (QTLS) status

This service will not tell you if a teacher has QTLS. You need to check the Society for Education and Training professional register.

School managers and governors

There’s a separate list of people who are not allowed to manage or govern schools. This is sometimes called the section 128 list.
