EWC registration for supply teachers in North Wales is essential.  Excell Supply is here to help you connect with the best schools and settings in the region. But before you embark on your rewarding supply career, as we come up on the renewal date for registration, understanding the Education Workforce Council (EWC) and its registration requirements is crucial.

What is the EWC?

The EWC is the independent professional regulator for the education workforce in Wales. They ensure high standards and promote improvement within the sector by overseeing the registration of teachers, learning support staff, youth workers, and work-based learning practitioners.

Why is EWC registration important for Supply Staff?

Being registered with the EWC is a legal requirement for all supply staff working in Wales, regardless of whether they are employed full-time, part-time, or on an hourly basis. This regulation applies to individuals working in:

  • Schools (including independent schools)
  • Further education (FE) settings
  • Youth work provisions

Benefits of EWC Registration:

  • Compliance: Meeting the legal requirement for working in education settings across Wales.
  • Professional recognition: Demonstrating your commitment to upholding professional standards in education.
  • Enhanced career opportunities: Accessing a wider range of supply positions across different schools and settings.

How to Register with the EWC:

The EWC offers a straightforward online application process. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Visit the EWC website: https://www.ewc.wales/
  2. Click on “Registration” and then “Apply to register”.
  3. Create an account and follow the online instructions.
  4. Ensure you have the necessary documentation ready, such as your qualifications, references, and DBS certificate.
  5. Pay the registration fee. If employed by a school this is usually taken care of by your employer, but on supply you usually pay directly.
