Summary |
Teacher appraisal systems have been in place since 1992, bringing with them considerable controvery. But just how effective are they, and what does this mean for the classroom teacher? This major new study, led by Ted Wragg, tackles these and many other questions. It uses as its basis information gathered from all 109 authorities, 658 primary and secondary teachers, 479 appraisers and as such represents the most extensive study of this area ever undertaken. The issue of teacher appraisal is examined from the perspectives of all those concerned and at all levels. The main focus of the study is on teacher competence in the classroom, which lies at the heart of school effectiveness and improving pupils' achievement. Through the use of a variety of methods including intensive case studies, the book provides a unique insight into the quality of classroom practice and teacher appraisal today. It examines what appraisal means for those involved and how to use this knowledge to move on from this point |
