EDUCATION, WALES
The General Teaching Council for Wales (“the GTCW”) was specified as a competent authority in the European Communities (Recognition of Professional Qualifications) Regulations 2007 (“the 2007 Regulations”). The 2007 Regulations are made under the European Communities Act 1972. The 2007 Regulations give effect to Council Directive 2005/36/EC on a general system on the recognition of professional qualifications. Section 2 of the Education (Wales) Act 2014 provides that the GTCW is to continue to exist but is re-named the Education Workforce Council (“the Council”). The Council will remain the competent authority for the purposes of the 2007 Regulations.
