The National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) (inheritor of the site and functions of the National College for School Leadership (NCSL)) was an executive agency of the Department for Education (a United Kingdom Government Ministry whose responsibilities extended to England only, not Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland). The NCTL had two key aims: to improve academic standards by ensuring there was a well qualified and capable force of teachers in sufficient numbers to meet the needs of the school system and to support and improve schools.
The NCTL also supported the quality and status of the teaching profession by ensuring that teachers were prohibited from teaching in cases of serious professional misconduct, overseeing teachers' inductions, and awarding the Qualified Teacher and Early Years Teacher Status.
In April 2018 the National College for Teaching and Leadership was discontinued; its functions were absorbed by a new Teaching Regulation Agency for the regulation of the teaching profession, and by the Department for Education for other matters.




History



The National College for Teaching and Leadership was formed on 29 March 2013, merging the activities of the National College for School Leadership and the Teaching Agency. NCSL had originally been established as a non-departmental public body but became an executive agency of the Department for Education on 1 April 2012.
Established in 2000 as the National College for School Leadership, its physical centre – a learning and conference centre (LCC) situated in a building designed by Sir Michael Hopkins on the Jubilee Campus of the University of Nottingham – was opened on 24 October 2002 by then Prime Minister Tony Blair. It cost £28,000,000 and was known as the Sandhurst of teachers.




Key areas of work


The NCTL 2015–16 annual report and accounts set out their key areas of operational delivery as follows:
