  3. Appraisal A framework of teaching standards is essential as a reference point for teacher appraisal. The current co-existence of two sets of teaching standards and the lack of clarity about their respective use call for their consolidation into a single set of standards providing a clear shared understanding of what counts as accomplished teaching. (OECD Reviews of Evaluation & Assessment in Education, 2012)

  4. Summative Appraisal The consolidated standards should describe competencies for different career steps of teachers and should allow for teacher registration to be conceived as career-progression appraisal. Such appraisal is summative in nature and should include an element of externality such as an accredited external evaluator, be based on classroom observation and a range of information demonstrating teacher effectiveness, and take into consideration the teacher’s own views.

  5. Formative Appraisal To ensure that all teachers benefit from systematic developmental appraisal, it is important to build the capacity of school leaders or expert teachers to undertake specific appraisal functions within the school and to ensure that the process is validated externally.

  6. Leaders’ responsibilities • Ensure all teachers know and understand the Criteria • Promote the Criteria as a guide for professional learning of teachers – help teachers to ‘own them’ • Assess teachers and/or ensure systems and training for those who will appraise/assess teachers

  7. Competence • Extensions • Competence Advisory Group (CAG) • Convenor Kevin Knight • Workshops • “What is the impact on students’ learning of this teacher’s professional practice?”

  8. Social Media Project on teachers’ use of social media: scenarios will be developed to encourage discussion & reflection on appropriate and ethical use of social media web-tips or resources will be developed for publication on the Council’s website
