Teacher Careers
Discussion Notes
The key important considerations
• There is no one size-fit-all concept or system of teacher career progression in place in the countries studied, nor is there one conceptually as could be gauged from the literature.
• The need for a system of formal recognition of teacher experience and development is relatively recent (some thirty years at the most)
• However, teacher recognition at school level has a long history of implementation.
What we learn from the presentations
• There are teacher subjective aspects at the centre of the need for some form of career system, as for example, teacher motivation and professional satisfaction, as well as working condition issues
• There are equally important policy reasons: quality of teacher intake, performance and retention as well as student learning (as shown in the Ecuador case)
• Some modes, however, cannot be strictly considered as forms of teacher career system: e.g. merit-pay bonuses based on voluntary teacher decisions
What we learn from the presentations
• While it is possible to distinguish the four kinds of models, in practice there is a diversity of combinations as the exploratory study shows
• A key issue has to do with the evaluation system selected to decide on teacher promotion
• Introduction of a career system where only a salary progression scheme has been in place needs attention to a complex set of factors and interests of the key players.
