Why a GTPA?

The GTPA is a rigorous, relevant and valid assessment of teacher proficiency against the APST. It provides the teacher, school and wider community with a repertoire of evidence and data indicating the quality of teaching and learning being enacted by that educator. It is useful for teachers in evaluating the efficacy of their strategies and allows them to make evidence based decisions about the direction of their teaching skills.

What are the main features of the GTPA?

Five practices included in the document: Planning,
Teaching, Assessing, Reflecting and Appraising

- A narrative of our proficiency

Why GTPA?
- Assuring quality of graduate teachers
- Building evidence of impact of graduate teachers in student learning

Main Features of GTPA?
- The process of year level curriculum planning, leading to teaching across the teaching area of focus.
- Analysing 3 focus students: one below expected standard, one at expected standard and one above expected standard.

The GTPA is devised into 5 main practice areas.
Practice 1: Planning
Practice 2: Teaching
Practice 3: Assessing
Practice 4: Reflecting
Practice 5: Appraising

In order to be successful with the GTPA, I will collect and report on data informed teaching and learning in order to enhance student success. I will analyse data in an academic way, reinforced by research and with reference to the Australian Curriculum.

# data[].attributes.body
Why a GTPA?

- To assure the quality of graduate teachers and build evidence of the impact of graduate teachers on student learning to give confidence to the community that the graduate teacher is classroom ready

What are the main features of the GTPA?

# data[].attributes.body
Why a GTPA?
- To assess pre-service teachers classroom readiness and ensure that stakeholders are confident in our ability.
-To allow us the opportunity to practice a self-regulating and reflective cycle of teaching, behaviours which we should carry throughout our careers.

Features of the GTPA:
The GTPa covers 5 practices, they are planning, teaching, assessing, reflecting and appraising. Each of the areas are supported with contemporary theories, annotated student data and evidence.

To be successful:

Use diagnostic and formative assessment consistently to collect a wide variety of student data as evidence. Make adjustments to how this is being collected if needed and use this to inform as 'Next Step Teaching' to inform practice. Participate in moderation and provide evidence of this through professional conversations and meetings. Reflect on the appraisal of teaching.

# data[].attributes.body
Why a GTPA?
The common assessment increases the confidence of parents, teachers, staff members and the community by ensuring students who are graduating and moving toward a registry of teaching, are also confident in their own abilities to be "classroom ready". To ensure future teachers are capable and ready, the GTPA provides an opportunity for all pre-service teachers to produce evidence of both their practice and performance.

What are the main features of the GTPA?
The GTPA is categorised into 5 different sections to ensure all pre-service teachers have at least a graduates understanding of how to; 1. plan using data, 2 Teach and learn, 3. Assess, provide feedback and professional judgment, 4. Reflect on teaching and 5. Appraise the impact of teaching. To successfully complete the GTPA, teachers must show that they have at least a graduates understanding for 3 or more of the 5 catergories.

What things will you need to do on placement in order to successfully complete the GTPA?
I believe that it will be absolutely necessary for all students to complete daily reflections and to communicate as much as possible with their supervising teachers and support people. I also think it would be extremely beneficial to take note and gain evidence of as many encounters as possible.
