Endorsement in England
Information for individuals
Standards Verification UK (SVUK) endorses teacher training qualifications for teachers, tutors and trainers in the lifelong learning sector in England, which are validated by institutions in England.
Significant changes to the requirements for initial teacher training (ITT) qualifications for teachers, tutors and trainers, who work in the learning and skills sector in England, came into effect in September 2007 through the Further Education Teachers' Qualifications (England) Regulations 2007, which were introduced as part of the 'Equipping our Teachers' agenda.
For further information about ITT qualifications in England, please call the LLUK Information and Advice Service.
