With a frightening teacher shortage looming, we need teachers to stay and we need to really improve teaching and learning we have to transform the way we observe and evaluate teachers. Trust-Based Observations provides that transformative change. You see, we  understand that first and foremost we're in a people business. And as such, we have to create conditions most conducive to learning. We do that by using the observation process to: Build meaningful differentiated trusting relationships with each teacher; Develop safe spaces where empowered teachers embrace taking risks to grow practice because they know they're supported; Create schoolwide cultures of trust where, as Hattie describes Trust-Based Observations, "Demonstrating collective teacher efficacy in action" is the norm.The result: improved teaching and learning and workplaces where teachers want to stay!  Head to www.trustbased.comeLearning PartnersNeed help starting your eLearning courses or training?
