Teacher misconduct: the prohibition of teachers - changes to the National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) advice

This consultation seeks the public’s views on proposals to revise the National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) advice on teacher misconduct.

The revisions are made following a Department for Education announcement in June 2013. This stated that the guidance would be revised to clarify the department’s expectation that any sexual misconduct and any criminal conviction or caution involving indecent images of children will lead to prohibition.
