Professional standards for teachers (UK) June 2007
http://tinyurl.com/yo7qgw
A revised framework of professional standards for teachers has been published by the Training and Development Agency for Schools (TDA). The revised standards come into affect in Sept 2007.
They form the first clear, progressive framework of standards for teachers and a key element of the 'new professionalism' agenda.
The standards are statements of a teacher’s professional attributes, knowledge and understanding, and skills. They clarify expectations at each career stage and what progression looks like.
The standards will act as backdrop to the revised performance management arrangements, helping teachers identify how they need to develop professionally to progress in their careers.
