十一月 3, 1995

National standards for teacher training and continuing professional development will be set by 바카라사이트 Teacher Training Agency, it was announced this week.

A programme for improving 바카라사이트 quality of teachers, which has been given 바카라사이트 go-ahead by Gillian Shephard, Secretary of State for Education and Employment, will include 바카라사이트 creation of a national framework of levels of competence in 바카라사이트 teaching profession, An바카라사이트a Millett, TTA chief executive, said.

The framework will set targets for teachers at four key stages in 바카라사이트 profession - 바카라사이트 newly-qualified, "expert" teachers, experts in subject leadership and management, and experts in school leadership and management.

It will pave 바카라사이트 way for 바카라사이트 introduction of national standards which would apply to courses delivered in universities, as well as in-service training in schools.

Giving 바카라사이트 TTA's first annual lecture on teacher education and training, Ms Millett said a first step would be to clarify standards for 바카라사이트 award of Qualified Teacher Status. "Through clearer competencies we can help improve training and sharpen 바카라사이트 attention paid in ITT courses to subject knowledge in order to establish 바카라사이트 high, but realistic expectations our pupils deserve," she said.

Sharper national standards were also needed on in-service training courses, run by universities and colleges as well as schools. "Teachers spend a great deal of time and effort on in-service training and some of that is wasted," she added.
