Bill overview
This bill modifies Tennessee’s rules for teacher certification. It allows teachers who have started their required clinical teaching hours but haven’t finished them to receive a temporary permit to continue teaching. Under this permit, they can count the hours they’ve already completed towards fulfilling the full clinical practice requirement, as well as any additional hours they teach while holding the temporary permit. The bill aims to provide more flexibility for aspiring teachers during their clinical training.
