A comparative study of teacher appraisal system in Hong Kong and Shanghai secondary schools

In Shanghai, the government requires the public schools to conduct schoolbased teacher appraisal for the use of improving teacher development and school development. In Hong Kong, according to the Education Commission Report No.7, aided schools have to establish self-management and conduct teacher appraisal annually for strengthening teacher development and school development, which is as same as in Shanghai. However, since the different education systems and culture backgrounds exist in these two areas, there must be differences of the teacher appraisal systems the schools conduct between Hong Kong and Shanghai.
The study will be taken place in two secondary schools in Hong Kong and Shanghai respectively. It focuses on the comparison of the teacher appraisal systems at school, including the appraisal contents, appraisal methods, teachers’ perspectives and effectiveness corresponding.
In this study, the current teacher appraisal systems that two schools have will be introduced for comparison. In addition, through the comparative study, I intend to figure out the importance and necessity of teacher appraisal to be carried out at school, to investigate if it is beneficial for the teacher development and school development, to see if it is possible to be refined for the two appraisal systems depending on comparing between each other. / published_or_final_version / Education / Master / Master of Education
