Teacher's automatic title requires qualifications only at the end of the three-year period, not throughout.

The Supreme Court ruled that a teacher's automatic title requires qualifications only at the moment the three-year employment period expires. The plaintiff, a teacher hired annually without initial qualifications, argued she should have received the title after three years despite lacking credentials during the period. The court held that the statutory provision does not mandate continuous possession of qualifications but only their existence at the expiration date.
