Teacher Survey Results on the IMPACT

The WTU released the results of an membership survey on IMPACT, DC Public Schools‘ (DCPS) new system for assessing the performance of teachers. Close to 1,000 members participated in this survey that was conducted among WTU members to assess the implementation of this evaluation instrument in DCPS. Findings from the survey clearly show that a large majority of teachers believe that IMPACT is not a fair evaluation system and offers them very little support. In addition, respondents overwhelmingly indicated that the new Teaching and Learning Framework was not ready for full implementation and teacher training around this new framework was incomplete and insufficient.
