The Quality of Teaching in Years 4 and 8: Reading (February 2005)
Findings
Review officers made evaluative judgements based on the evidence found for each indicator of quality teaching in reading for each of the key evaluation questions. They identified whether the teaching of reading in the school was highly effective, effective, sometimes effective or not effective for each indicator. The table below describes how each of the terms is defined for the purpose of this evaluation.
Level of effectiveness | Definition[20] |
| Highly effective | Clear, consistent and convincing evidence of teaching practice that reflects indicators of quality teaching. |
| Effective | Clear evidence of teaching practice that reflects indicators of quality teaching (practice reflects indicators but may not be as consistent or convincing across all sources of evidence). |
| Sometimes effective | Limited evidence of teaching practice that reflects indicators of quality teaching. |
| Not effective | No evidence of teaching practice that reflects indicators of quality teaching. |
Typical practice from across the sample has been outlined for each of the key quality of teaching themes.
