Do public charter school teachers and administrators need to be licensed by TSPC?
Fifty percent of the total FTE (full time equivalency) must be certified teachers and/or administrators. The other fifty percent must be registered by the Teachers Standards & Practices Commission. For example, if the total FTE for a public charter school was 4 (approximately 32 hours a day) then 16 of those hours could be assigned to a person who was not a licensed teacher. The staffi ng situation of each charter school may be dependent upon what entity acts as employer.
