Any Applicant that does not have recognised teacher training qualification but their services are needed in schools for either teaching or assisting in teaching roles, can apply to register for the LAT Registration. These registrations are not granted without justification from the school heads or employing authorities. FTRA reserves the right and judgment to award registration in this category. LAT registration is given for a fixed period of two years. Successful applicants are issued with a letter from FTRA that contains a FTRA registration ID number and a “T” registration number. Applicants in LAT category are not issued with the FTRA ID Cards.

Provisional Registration is given for one year; a letter is issued by FTRA that contains FTRA Registration ID Number and a “T” Registration Number. Applicants in Provisional category are not issued with the FTRA ID Cards.

Applicants holding Provisional Registration are required to complete one year of teaching before being eligible to apply for a Full Registration. Favourable report from the Head of school will be critical in determining if full registration will be awarded to the applicant. Full registration is only given for a three year period. Each teacher on Full registration is entitled for the FTRA ID card, which is either collected from the FTRA Office or posted to the respective school immediately after registration is granted via registered mail.
