subject to you signing a training agreement.



STA Qualified Candidates:



Please note that the STA have two qualifications – the Level 2 Award and the Level 2 Certificate. Although the STA refer to them
both as Level 2, the Certificate is a higher qualification.



In order to differentiate the two qualifications, we refer to teachers who are Award qualified as Level 1 and will be paid at
Level 1 rate, and teachers that are Certificate qualified as Level 2 and will be paid at Level 2 rate.
