one sentence to correct
Hello,
could you tell me please whether the sentence below is correct?
That's a fragment of a formal email:
"Is a teaching assistant in your school required to have
a Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
granted by the Teaching Agency or
is registration with the Teaching Agency sufficient/a sufficient condition?.
I would be grateful for your reply"
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards.

In this particular situation, it is the Teaching Agency. http://www.education.gov.uk/aboutdfe/armslengthbodies/b0077806/the-teaching-agency

fivejedjonIn this particular situation, it is the Teaching Agency.OK, cool. Just ignore those two corrections. If the organisation's full name is "The Teaching Agency" then you should use a capital T on the THE.

KrisBlueNZJust ignore those two corrections.They would be sound advice generally. If I hadn't happened to have had some dealings with the Teaching Agency recently, I wouldn't have known that that was what was being refrred to.
