The purpose of this paper is to examine how teachers in England evaluate their teaching practice using the criteria based on OFSTED (The Office for Standards in Education) inspections. Also considered are the links and related problems between teaching practice and these evaluation criteria.
This subject is of particular interest in the context of the new teacher appraisal system in Tokyo, which requires teachers to report on their own educational activities. The system of selfreporting there consists of ‘learning support’, ‘student guidance/career guidance’, ‘school management’ and ‘special activities/others’. Teachers in Tokyo have to set their own targets for assessing their activities in each category. Final appraisals are to be conducted by the school principal on the basis of the report submitted by each teacher.
