How do I get a copy of my QTS certificate?

You can access the TRA to download a digital copy of your QTS and Induction certification with the DfE Identity.

If you are a qualified teacher in the UK, you will need to provide Step Teachers with a copy of your QTS certificate to demonstrate you hold a TRN (Teacher Reference Number). If you don't have a copy or have access to your certificate, you can log into the TRA on the link below and download it.

https://access-your-teaching-qualifications.education.gov.uk/

If you don't have a DfE Identify, you can read our guide on how to get one.

Once you have logged into the TRA website, you will see an option to download your QTS and Induction certificate.

We hope this is helpful. If you are having problems with that site or getting your teacher reference number, please contact the DfE directly via teaching.status@education.gov.uk
