An attempt to loosen requirements for teacher certifications was thrown out of court​, dealing a blow to charter schools and a victory to those who insisted on traditional qualifications.

The State Supreme Court in Manhattan on Tuesday ruled against a SUNY committee’s plans to allow for less formal training for charter school teachers than is required for public school teachers in exchange for real-life experience the subject matter.

The State Education Department and Board of Regents sued the committee that governs charter schools to overturn the new regulations last fall.

“The Court’s decision is a victory for all New York’s children,” crowed Board of Regents Chancellor Betty A. Rosa in a joint statement with State Education Commissioner MaryEllen Elia.

“In its strong opinion, the court rightly upheld the Board of the Regents and the Commissioner’s authority to certify teachers in New York State,” the pair said.

“Every child – regardless of color, economic status or ability – deserves a qualified teacher with meaningful experience to be prepared for the classroom. We are pleased the court agreed with this agreed. The Board of Regents and the Department will continue our efforts to raise standards for our teachers and uplift the entire profession.”

Charter school advocates and the SUNY panel wanted to let teachers demonstrate subject knowledge and classroom training so charter schools could hire experts in science, technology, engineering and math without education degrees.
