Accordingly, SACE’s professionalisation process is positioned within the broader context of government’s vision to professional ise the public service through the constitution of the country, the National Development Plan: Vision 2030 and other related initiatives.  \nThus, as a statutory professional self-regulatory body, SACE has an enormous role to play insetting and maintaining both the professional and ethical standards in the teaching profession in order to protect the integrity of the profession and to safeguard the public interests. Also, the ethical and professional standards contribute to teacher professionalism and reinforce public confidence and trust in the teaching profession.  \nIn line with this, SACE has a legislative authority to determine requirements for entry into all levels of the profession, promote and manage a system for continuing professional development, and set and uphold professional and ethical standards. This legislate mandate ensures that SACE plays a dual role of being the custodian and gatekeeper of the teaching profession. It also forms part of SACE’s selfregulatory frameworks which are fundamental to building a capable and credible teaching force that is highly developed, value-driven and accountable in delivering quality teaching and learning in schools and post-schooling colleges.  \nIn the next five years, SACE will implement the professional standards and the profession’s teacher professional isation path that begins with determining the requirements for entry into initial teacher education; registration of student teachers from first year of study; supporting of the newly qualified teachers through structured induction and mentoring programme; awarding of professional certification  \nand designation status that is linked to the induction programme; and continuing professional teacher development system and maintenance of the professional status through the possible re-certification process.  \nAdditionally, in responding to the President of the Republic of South Africa’s call to migrate the Early Childhood Development Education (ECD) from the Department of Social Development (DSD) to the Department of Basic Education, SACE will take the lead in contributing to the professionalisation of the ECD sector in collaboration with other key role players. This will assist in strengthening the internal quality of the sector, and protect the practitioners as well as the children.  \nSACE is indeed working towards protecting the integrity of the teaching profession and inspiring a credible teaching profession in the next five years.  \ny  \n_____________________  \nMrs AM Motshekga, MP  \nExecutive Authority  \niii  \nSouth African Council for Educators STRATEGIC PLAN 2020 - 2025  \nFOREWORD BY THE CHAIRPERSON  \nThe appreciation of our success and areas of development presents us with an opportunity to gauge our policies, our systems, practices and culture at an operational level as to whether we are in anyway line with realisation of our mandates.
