Starting My SCOR Journey (Sample format)

Hello! I’m Anjxx, from Sunbeam school. When I joined the SCOR program, my primary goal was to improve the way I observe student engagement and participation in class.

I hoped to move beyond just noticing whether students are "paying attention" to really understanding how they are learning and what invisible barriers might be affecting them. My goal was also to learn how to give non-evaluative, constructive feedback to my peers based on real classroom evidence.

# data[].attributes.body
My SCOR Action Plan (Sample format)

During the course, I created a simple yet structured action plan:

1. Identify one observation goal per week (e.g., tracking questioning techniques or student wait time).

2. Use the SCOR note-taking template during live or recorded classes.

3. Conduct one peer observation and feedback session every 10 days.

4. Reflect in a journal using guiding questions from the SCOR handbook.

I also decided to experiment with sketch-noting some lessons to capture flow and participation patterns visually.

# data[].attributes.body
From Noticing to Understanding (Sample format)

One of the most transformative learnings I implemented was watching without judgment. Earlier, I would mentally rate teaching strategies. Now, I ask: “What’s the evidence of student learning happening here?”

In my classroom, I used SCOR to redesign my seating layout based on participation data. I noticed students in the back participated less, so I rotated roles and restructured seating. I also used SCOR when mentoring a peer—offering feedback using observable patterns, not assumptions.

This has made both my teaching and collaboration much more intentional and supportive.

# data[].attributes.body
Looking Ahead: Feedback & Reflections (Sample format)

The SCOR program has been a deeply reflective experience. I loved the balance between theory and field application. The observation templates and practice opportunities were particularly valuable.

My suggestion would be to include mock observation videos early in the program to help participants develop a shared lens.

I also wish we had more peer feedback sessions—perhaps in triads—so we could experience a variety of observation styles.

Thank you for helping me build the habit of purposeful noticing!

My SCOR Journey

Paul Puthenveetil Variath.

In my ongoing commitment to fostering a culture of continuous improvement and professional growth among my team members and myself, I participated in the training on the Strategic Classroom Observation and Reporting (SCOR) with clearly defined objectives. The primary aim was to learn how to design and implement effective observation strategies that move beyond mere compliance and lead to meaningful feedback, actionable insights, and tangible improvements in teaching and learning processes.

Through this training, I sought to understand classroom dynamics with clarity, identify areas of strength, and uncover opportunities for enhancement. A central focus of this journey was developing the ability to effectively communicate observation findings and feedback in a manner that fosters openness, collaboration, and a shared commitment to excellence among teaching teams.

By integrating structured observation tools, reflective dialogues, and follow-up action plans, I intended to build a culture where teachers feel supported, valued, and motivated to innovate and refine their instructional practices. This ongoing effort not only enhances the quality of teaching but also aligns institutional goals with the larger vision of holistic student development and academic excellence.

In pursuit of enhancing instructional quality and fostering a reflective, improvement-driven academic culture, I intend to implement a comprehensive and structured Classroom Observation Framework. This initiative is conceived as a strategic mechanism to support professional growth, ensure pedagogical consistency, and ultimately enrich the learning experience for students. The planned actions include the following:

Develop a comprehensive Classroom Observation Framework that encompasses key pedagogical dimensions such as teaching methodologies, student engagement strategies, classroom management practices, and the attainment of intended learning outcomes. This framework will serve as a guiding document to ensure clarity, consistency, and objectivity in the observation process.

Design and implement an equitable classroom observation schedule that provides balanced coverage of all faculty members, across subjects and grade levels, thereby ensuring inclusivity and fairness in professional evaluation and support.

Clearly communicate the purpose, methodology, and anticipated outcomes of the observation initiative to all teaching staff, fostering a culture of transparency, trust, and collective ownership. This dialogue will be aimed at reinforcing the developmental intent of the process, positioning it as a shared opportunity for growth rather than appraisal.

Develop and standardize observation recording tools including checklists, evaluative rubrics, and reflective note templates, ensuring uniformity in data collection and enabling meaningful, evidence-based feedback.

Comprehensive summary reports to the school leadership, highlighting key findings, achievements, challenges, and recommendations to inform future planning and initiatives.

Through the implementation of these initiatives, my goal is to establish a structured, empathetic, and impactful system of classroom observation that contributes to sustained instructional excellence and professional collaboration.

Paul Puthenveetil Variath

The training proved to be a truly transformative experience, significantly influencing my approach to instructional leadership and professional practice. As a result, I systematically integrated several key strategies into my daily work. I began conducting classroom observations with a strong emphasis on objectivity, discretion, and consistency in data collection, ensuring that both strengths and areas for improvement were carefully identified and supported with specific evidence. Each observation was followed by a confidential and constructive feedback session, conducted within a defined timeframe to maintain relevance and momentum. I closely monitored the implementation of agreed-upon action points through regular follow-ups and informal check-ins, providing continuous support where needed. Noteworthy improvements and innovative teaching practices were acknowledged and celebrated during staff meetings and recognition forums, fostering a positive and collaborative professional culture. Finally, I prepared comprehensive summary reports for school leadership, highlighting key findings, achievements, challenges, and recommendations to inform future planning and initiatives.

The SCOR training proved to be an enriching and transformative experiential learning journey, where theory and practice were seamlessly integrated to create a balanced, insightful programme. It enabled me to develop a nuanced understanding of how to share observation findings in a manner that is respectful, non-threatening, and growth-oriented — placing emphasis on affirming strengths before sensitively addressing areas for improvement. Through this, I acquired the ability to collaboratively formulate actionable improvement plans with my team members, offering thoughtful, practical strategies for pedagogical refinement and professional growth.

Moreover, the training equipped me to foster a culture of open, reflective dialogue among school teachers & my team members— creating safe spaces where they could candidly reflect on their classroom practices, pose questions, and articulate the challenges they encounter. This spirit of professional inquiry not only strengthened individual capacities but also contributed to the collective learning ethos of the institution.

A significant outcome of the programme was the capacity to analyze cumulative observation data to discern broader institutional patterns, professional development needs, and areas warranting policy attention. Additionally, it imparted the discernment required to periodically review and refine observation tools, criteria, and processes — ensuring that they remain relevant, responsive, and aligned with both educator feedback and evolving educational priorities. In essence, the SCOR training has profoundly shaped my approach to instructional leadership, embedding within it the principles of empathy, evidence-based practice, and a steadfast commitment to continuous improvement.

Hello! I'm Rishi Narayan Singh, from Sunbeam School. When I joined SCOR Program, mine primary goal was to have an amplification towards classroom observation and presenting it in the best way towards the school community stakeholders. With a sense of accurate and precise feedback followed by a proper way forward.

# data[].attributes.body
My SCOR Action Plan was -

1. Communicating the parameters of the classroom observation with the teachers whom I will be observing and making him/her aware of the criteria which will be taken care of during observation.

2. At least three observations in the same class and section and the same subject taught by the teacher to be observed as a standardised observation procedure.

3. Using the sample report format that broadly covers all the aspect of the classroom observation and colour coding analysis.

4. Also to recheck, rethink, and represent the data that has validity and is empirical.

# data[].attributes.body
When you implement the learning, you actually come to know more about the practical aspect, of it during the implementation one of the major things I, realised was not to have a premature evaluation, and also that during a live classroom observation all the parameters will be covered is not pragmatically possible, I also realised while running note there are certain factors that gives name to a another parameter which might not be strike off during structing it. This urge the demand for more inclusive and holistic teaching and learning practices.

# data[].attributes.body
SCOR Program has been a groundbreaking experience for me as we do in the grounded theory of research, everything starts from the scratch, the report format and the presentation template was very effective, that gives a complete picture to the stakeholders as to what their area of concern speaks in a SMART Framework .The training leads to continuous brainstorming sessions that has helped in the professional upskilling towards the classroom observation in an empathetical manner.

# data[].attributes.body
Hello, I’m Divya Upadhyaya from Sunbeam School. My journey with the SCOR Program began with a clear objective: to enhance the quality of classroom observation and to present findings effectively to the school authorities. My focus was on generating precise and actionable feedback.

The SCOR Program has truly been a transformative experience as this program encouraged us to build our understanding for report structuring or presentation templates. These observations provided a comprehensive and SMART-aligned framework that effectively communicated areas of concern to stakeholders. The training sessions also fostered meaningful discussions that significantly contributed to my professional development, especially in terms of evidence-based classroom observation.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Pre-Observation Communication: I ensured that teachers were made aware of the observation parameters in advance, clearly communicating the criteria that would be used during classroom visits.

2. Standardized Observation Practice: I conducted a minimum of three observations per teacher in the same class and subject area to ensure consistency and reliability in the evaluation process.

3. Structured Reporting & Analysis: I utilized the sample report format provided in the SCOR training. This helped in covering all core aspects of classroom observation and supported analysis.

4. Continuous Review & Refinement: I made it a point to collect data, filter it, do qualitative and quantitative analysis,feedback would be on SMART framework.  The SCOR Program has enabled me to approach classroom observation with both structure and sensitivity, ensuring feedback is not only accurate and professional but also growth-oriented and inclusive.

# data[].attributes.body
Implementation:
The SCOR Program was systematically implemented through a structured approach that emphasized clarity, consistency, and collaboration.

Pre-observation communication ensured transparency and preparedness among teachers, aligning expectations regarding observation parameters.

Multiple classroom visits for each teacher in the same subject and grade helped maintain consistency in evaluation and minimized observational bias.

Use of standardized report formats, as introduced in the SCOR training, brought uniformity and comprehensiveness to documentation.

Feedback based on SMART framework ensured that action points were Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound.

Ongoing review and refinement of observation data and analysis helped in continuously improving the quality of feedback shared with teachers.

Key Learnings:

Holistic Observation Approach: Classroom dynamics often overlap multiple parameters; hence, observations must be flexible and comprehensive rather than rigidly checklist-driven.

Avoiding Premature Judgement: A single classroom session cannot always capture the full teaching-learning process; repeated and patient observation allows for more accurate insights.

Evidence-Based Practice: Basing observations on concrete evidence and structured formats significantly enhanced the credibility and acceptance of feedback.

Professional Sensitivity: Implementing feedback in a growth-oriented and non-threatening manner encouraged greater teacher receptivity and constructive dialogue.

Analytical Thinking: Integrating both qualitative and quantitative data sharpened analytical skills, leading to more balanced and insightful reporting.

# data[].attributes.body
The structured implementation approach, especially the emphasis on clarity, consistency, and collaboration, was instrumental in shaping my understanding of effective classroom observation.

This journey not only improved the quality of classroom observations but also strengthened my ability to support instructional improvement through structured, fair, and purposeful feedback.

Hello, My primary goal was to enhance the way I observe student engagement and participation in the classroom. I aim to go beyond simply noting if students are paying attention—I want to truly understand how they learn and identify any invisible barriers that may hinder their progress. Additionally, I wanted to learn how to reflect more effectively using real classroom evidence. It’s also important to recognize that apart from observation, I contribute in several other areas that were not covered in the training.

# data[].attributes.body
During the course, I developed a simple and structured action. I updated my previous checklist to align with the new approach (visual representation & marking) and began using it consistently for classroom observations. Additionally, I created a summary writing format to document daily work, including tasks beyond observation.

# data[].attributes.body
I have now started conducting classroom observations more effectively. I focus on recording exactly what I see, without adding any personal interpretations or assumptions. This shift helps ensure that my observations are unbiased and based purely on real evidence from the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body

Phase 5: Capacity Building and Dissemination

Objective: Build capacity of school heads and observers using updated tools.

Actions:

Present final reporting formats to heads.

Share formats as training resources for new observers.

Seek feedback and mentor guidance (e.g., from Paul Sir) to refine tools continuously.

# data[].attributes.body
To extend the impact of this journey, I discussed, reviewed collaboratively and revised our observation checklists. These discussions led to the development of more rubric-based and outcome-driven formats, which included clear scope definitions, expected evidence, and indicators of both student engagement and teacher effectiveness.

We expanded this effort beyond classroom observations to include other critical areas such as lesson planning, documentation, curriculum status, and parallel curriculum review. I organized the checklists into two categories: rubric-based (evaluative) and compliance-based (status-driven: completed, partial, not completed), which helped in streamlining reviews across varied domains.

Additionally, we piloted the updated checklists in non-academic departments such as the Fee Counter etc to ensure consistency and alignment across all school functions.

Refining Reporting through a Mixed Approach

One of the key challenges was compiling the final report for Associate Schools, integrating SCOR insights meaningfully. After multiple iterations, we adopted a hybrid strategy. For core academic areas and key functional departments like Timetable and Non-Academics, we provided detailed analysis using scores and SMART-based recommendations. For other sections, we retained existing reporting formats but embedded SMART recommendations for improvement.

# data[].attributes.body
SCORE program has been a Experiential Learning for me to Plan brief reflective meetings post-observation to discuss observations and co-create improvement strategies.

I aimed to move beyond simply recording what was happening in the classroom and instead focus on understanding the reasons behind certain teaching choices and how they impact student learning. I was also keen to develop the ability to provide constructive, non-judgmental feedback that is clear, purposeful and supportive for teachers.

My SCOR Action Plan

During the SCOR course, I created a focused and forward-looking action plan to enhance my effectiveness as an observer:

1. Build reflective practices by reviewing observation notes and reports regularly to identify patterns, track progress, and improve the consistency and depth of my documentation.

2. Strengthen feedback culture by shifting from evaluative comments to growth-focused, evidence-based feedback that aligns with institutional objectives and supports professional development.

3. Refine and simplify observation formats to ensure they capture key aspects of classroom practice and student engagement, combining clear evidence with practical insights.

4. Integrate the SMART framework (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) into observation goals and feedback writing, allowing every insight shared to be clear, actionable, and aligned with professional growth.

Implementation of learning -

1. Refined observation format

The observation format have simplified and structured to focus on key aspects/parameters. This ensures that each observation is purposeful, evidence-based and easier to analyse.

2. SMART-aligned feedback

I now frame my feedback using the SMART approach — ensuring that it is Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound. This has helped make suggestions more actionable and meaningful for teachers.

3. Reflection Log

I maintain a simple log that helps me track observations, identify recurring trends and reflect on shifts in teaching-learning practices across different classes

The SCOR training was a valuable experience. By focusing on data driven insights and SMART framework ,it made feedback more precise and effective.

However more timely feedback would have reinforced concepts better and allowed for quicker correction.

The SCOR training has been a meaningful and enriching experience. It helped me look at classroom practices with greater clarity and purpose. The sessions were practical, well-structured and closely connected to real classroom observations.

I especially valued the focus on giving supportive, Growth-focused feedback — something I can directly apply in my role. Grateful to have been part of this insightful journey.
