two.1.4) Short description
GTCNI rely on the current IT system to support the function of registration. There are currently over 68,000 teacher records held on the system, of which approximately 26,350 are active. All registered individuals have access to the system along with certain employer organisations such as schools and members of the public. Non-active records are reviewed and maintained under GTCNI’s policies, for example procedures for Reinstating a Teacher. Approximately 500 NI students and 500 applicants outside NI are added to the system each year. This procurement is necessary to replace the existing IT solution which has reached end of life and will no longer be fully supported and to provide a new system that will: • Enable the GTCNI to continue to meet its current obligations with regard to the registration and regulation of teachers as set out in the Education (Northern Ireland) Order 1998, Articles 34-41 as amended by the 2003 and 2006 Education (NI) Orders • Allow the GTCNI to respond to current and future business needs • Facilitate a more efficient and proactive role in improving service • Maintain public confidence and trust in the profession. More details of the current solution are included in the Specification Schedule in addition to the detailed requirements for this new solution.
