PTLLS Legislation

by jayne cotterill
(notts)

Question about PTLLS Legislation. Are people covered legally to train if they have not completed the pttls course and been certified.

We are a care group that train staff in a learning disability home.

Jayne: registered manager

The question seems to revolve around whether you receive government funding for training.

Anyone in receipt of government funding for teaching will require a PTLLS certificate. PTLLS stands for "Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector".

Essentially anyone who delivers learning to one or more individuals will be covered by this regulation, whether the teaching is delivered in a classroom or at business premises.

It will cover full time teachers delivering lessons in a college and at the same time will cover trainers and assessors providing courses and underpinning knowledge for work and vocational qualifications.

The intention with PTLLS is to have a "one size fits all" qualification which will give all qualified teachers a substantive qualification that allows them to pass the necessary threshold to teach.

In line with the requirements for teachers in the Lifelong Learning sector, new qualifications were launched in September 2007.

The minimum qualification now required if one wishes to teach in the post-compulsory education sector is a PTLLS (Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector) - which may or may not lead to a full QTLS qualification.

The exact content of the course depends on where and from whom it is gained, but there are certain principles which are indispensable parts of the course wherever it is learned.

The suitable candidates for a PTLLS course are anyone who would like to work in the lifelong learning sector and is new to teaching adults, and those who have been teaching for a short time and have no subject-specific training.
