General Teaching Council

Beginning in 2000, all teachers must register with the GTC annually and pay an annual fee. John Sayer has been strongly involved in negotiations on the GTC since 1980. Here he offers an insider's view, including personal correspondence with the key players.

John Sayer is Vice-Chair of the GTC (England and Wales) initiative and Director of European Union Tempus Teacher Development Projects at Oxford University.
