This book was released on 2017 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teacher attrition continues to be a problem in many communities throughout North Carolina and the United States. Research indicates salary, student discipline, and administrative support as leading causes of teacher turnover. This study is exclusive to the Granville County Public School District, located in north central, North Carolina. The Granville district has experienced two consecutive years of teacher turnover eclipsing 20%, causing much concern with school administration and within the community. This improvement study was conducted following a small-scale proof-of-concept, concentrated at a middle school within the district. Attempting to improve ill-structured problems such as teacher retention within a specific Local Educational Administration, forces one to investigate cause and effect, be it problem or solution. Supporting this investigation was Deming's approach of (a) systems, (b) variation, (c) knowledge, and (d) psychology, coupled with the methodology of Improvement Science. This study revealed the importance of principal leadership at the school level relative to teacher attrition, by evaluation of specific strategies enacted at a selected middle school to improve perceptions of teacher appreciation, student behavior, and communication. A sequential process to improve teacher retention was also created to help school administrators identify specific problems in their respective institutions, formulate and initiate strategies for improvement, as well as determine effectiveness, with the end goal of improving teacher retention at the school campus and within the district.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACT William Dale Norris, AN EXAMINATION OF THE IMPACT OF TEACHER TURNOVER ON THE SCHOOLS AND STUDENTS IN THE COLUMBUS COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT: A BEST PRACTICE MODEL TO PROMOTE TEACHER RETENTION (Under the direction of Dr. Harold Holloman). Department of Educational Leadership, March 2019. This study examines the causes of increased teacher turnover rates and how these rates detrimentally affect schools and student performance. In addition, this study provides recommendations for best practices in retaining teachers, especially new teachers, in the Columbus County School District. The study uses both quantitative and qualitative techniques and improvement science methodology. Current system-wide teacher turnover data, as well as surveys from principals, teachers, beginning teachers, and mentors are utilized. The scope of the study focuses on elementary, middle, and high schools in Columbus County, North Carolina. Columbus County is located in a rural region and has an increasing teacher turnover rate. Based on this study, best practices for retaining teachers are presented as a comprehensive teacher retention plan. The specific best practices include strong mentorship programs, meaningful professional development opportunities, targeted school leadership recruiting, modified teacher assignments, and critical self-reflection programs.

Book Synopsis Taking Education Really Seriously by : Michael Fielding
Download or read book Taking Education Really Seriously written by Michael Fielding and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Fielding looks at what the Labour Government has achieved in the last four years with its policy of 'education, education, education'. There has been widespread disappointment in New Labour's education policies, which on the whole have not steered too far wide of those put in place by Margaret Thatcher, including issues of marketisation, testing and performativity. Michael Fielding has called on the key policy thinkers in education to offer their opinions on what has happened in education over the first three to four years of the New Labour Government. Education policy is a controversial subject and with a General Election expected within the next few months, this book will be read widely by people within education, politicians and journalists and by others anxious to get to facts and avoid the spin. The subject matter and the presence of so many high profile educationalists make this an essential read.
Book Synopsis WHY THEY STAY: CRITICAL FACTORS FOR TEACHER RETENTION. by : Andrew B Keller
Download or read book WHY THEY STAY: CRITICAL FACTORS FOR TEACHER RETENTION. written by Andrew B Keller and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My district in North Carolina is one of many across the country impacted by a shortage of teachers caused by attrition and fewer people entering the profession. Educational leaders must increase teacher retention to sufficiently staff their schools. Data on teacher turnover is largely based on surveys completed by exiting teachers. This study gathers perspectives from the teachers who stay, to better understand what has kept them in the profession. This approach proactively identified strategies to improve teacher job satisfaction to increase the number of teachers who remain at their current school. Q Methodology was used to determine the factors that are most important for job satisfaction to teachers at a comprehensive high school in central North Carolina. Two distinct factor groups emerged from the data: Monarchy High School, named due to the significance of site-based school leadership and Federation High School where collegial relationships with peers were central to remaining in the profession. Post-sort interviews provided insight to why teachers hold their beliefs. The findings of this study can be used by school leaders to develop a better understanding of how to intentionally design supportive working environments to increase teacher retention.

Book excerpt: The term "teacher retention" refers to the ability to keep teachers on the job. In other words, it is the ability to reduce or eliminate teacher turnover. "Turnover" refers to the migration of teachers between schools or districts "and" the attrition of teachers from the profession (Ingersoll & Perda, 2009). From the perspective of a principal, both are problems of equal concern. From the perspective of a policymaker seeking to improve teacher quality systemwide, however, it is a more nuanced concern. One principal's turnover may be another principal's recruitment boon. If the latter principal is leading a hard-to-staff school, such migration may be welcomed as a move toward a more equitable distribution of teachers. Both migration and attrition are costly, with taxpayers losing approximately $2.2 billion per year to teacher migration and $2.7 billion per year to teacher attrition (Alliance for Excellent Education, 2005). Although the retention of ineffective teaches should of course be discouraged, increasing the retention of effective teachers in the profession will serve all principals well. In high-needs districts, where teacher turnover tends to be highest, improving teacher retention is particularly important. Tracking the movement of teachers between schools, districts, and states as well as into and out of the profession is a good first step to help policymakers and school leaders develop effective strategies for improving teacher retention. This Key Issue offers strategies to improve the retention of qualified and effective teachers in hard-to-staff schools.

Book excerpt: This report develops a strategy for improving national and state forecasts of future teacher attrition rates. The authors (1) develop a theory of teacher attrition that accounts for the disparate reasons for attrition and explains the patterns of attrition unique to each life cycle and career stage; (2) selectively review existing literature on teacher attrition and present attrition patterns from several states in order to test hypotheses deriving from their theory; (3) review the data available to support improved attrition models and recommend ways to make better use of the data; and (4) identify sampling and data collection strategies that will improve the value of data collected in a future national survey of teachers.

Book Synopsis Noncognitive Skills in the Classroom by : Jeffrey A. Rosen
Download or read book Noncognitive Skills in the Classroom written by Jeffrey A. Rosen and published by RTI Press. This book was released on 2010-09-27 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of recent research on the relationship between noncognitive attributes (motivation, self efficacy, resilience) and academic outcomes (such as grades or test scores). We focus primarily on how these sets of attributes are measured and how they relate to important academic outcomes. Noncognitive attributes are those academically and occupationally relevant skills and traits that are not “cognitive”—that is, not specifically intellectual or analytical in nature. We examine seven attributes in depth and critique the measurement approaches used by researchers and talk about how they can be improved.
Book Synopsis Reinventing Public Education by : Paul Hill
Download or read book Reinventing Public Education written by Paul Hill and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-02-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heated debate is raging over our nation’s public schools and how they should be reformed, with proposals ranging from imposing national standards to replacing public education altogether with a voucher system for private schools. Combining decades of experience in education, the authors propose an innovative approach to solving the problems of our school system and find a middle ground between these extremes. Reinventing Public Education shows how contracting would radically change the way we operate our schools, while keeping them public and accessible to all, and making them better able to meet standards of achievement and equity. Using public funds, local school boards would select private providers to operate individual schools under formal contracts specifying the type and quality of instruction. In a hands-on, concrete fashion, the authors provide a thorough explanation of the pros and cons of school contracting and how it would work in practice. They show how contracting would free local school boards from operating schools so they can focus on improving educational policy; how it would allow parents to choose the best school for their children; and, finally, how it would ensure that schools are held accountable and academic standards are met. While retaining a strong public role in education, contracting enables schools to be more imaginative, adaptable, and suited to the needs of children and families. In presenting an alternative vision for America’s schools, Reinventing Public Education is too important to be ignored.
