Teacher professional standards for South Africa: The road to better performance, development and accountability?

Report based on two research papers written by Nick Taylor, Natasha Robinson and Jane Hofmeyr for JET Education Services.

A report from the Centre for Development and Enterprise (CDE) "based on commissioned research on the development of Teacher Professional Standards (TPS) in a range of developed and developing countries. Guided by the research findings, it assesses the potential for TPS to contribute to improving teacher quality in South Africa; it draws lessons from the experience of other countries, makes recommendations for the adoption of best practice in the field and identifies priorities for developing and implementing TPS effectively." (CDE, 2017. Teacher professional standards for South Africa: The road to better performance, development and accountability? p. 1).
