The Teaching in 2012 proposals set out a vision for the profession that will eliminate teaching variations, meet all learners' individual needs, support inter-agency working and give children greater influence over teaching practice.
This will be achieved through the Teacher Learning Academy initiative, a new system designed to recognise professional development, and the GTC's Teaching Network, which will pilot ways of sharing best practice.
Research projects will inform how the GTC advises the government on policy and practice, and teachers will benefit from revised conduct, competency and development standards.
Keith Bartley, chief executive of the GTC, said the plans would reflect the public's interest in teaching. He said: "These are exciting times for the profession as we plan how the Teaching in 2012 vision will shape the council's work for the next four years. We will be working closely with all agencies and organisations that have a commitment to the values and ethics that unite the wider children's workforce."
