Ministers say academies will be able to hire staff who are experts in their fields who do not have qualified teacher status



All academies will be allowed to hire unqualified teachers in the future, the government has announced.
Ministers said the move would mean schools could hire staff who were experts in their field who had not taught in state schools before and did not have qualified teacher status (QTS).
One teaching union condemned the decision, calling it a "clear dereliction of duty" and arguing that all schoolchildren should be taught by qualified teachers.
