What the research tells us.

What Teachers Want

Current Research. “A lack of meaningful evaluation of teachers’ work

means that teachers receive no recognition for quality teaching. Not only is this demoralising for teachers but it also implies that there is no meaningful evaluation that is required for teacher development and school improvement.” .

Grattan Report, pages 13,14.

What Teachers Want: Better Teacher Management.

May 2010.

Current Research.

When meaningful evaluation occurs, “Teachers report that evaluation can be helpful and improve classroom teaching. “ (OECD, 2009.)

“Analysis of the reports from school principals and teachers show that:

•Schools that more frequently evaluate teachers have more effective teachers; and,

•Schools that emphasise particular aspects of teaching in their teacher evaluations create improvements in the quality of teaching in these areas.”
