Understanding that recruiting, retaining and developing teachers is a priority worldwide, and recognising teachers’crucial influence on student learning, the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) surveyed over 100,000 lower secondary teachers and their principals in 34 countries, asking about their working conditions and the learning environment in schools. TALIS aims to provide comparable information to help review and define policies for developing a high-quality teaching profession. This session will examine themes covered by TALIS, in particular, it will describe the profiles of teachers and their schools, school leadership and its impact and teaching, teachers’ pedagogical and professional practices, factors relating to teachers’ feelings of job satisfaction and self-efficacy and will examine the results for the United States more specifically.
