Better screening finds better teachers
Published research, not one of our clients.
The problem
Washington, DC public schools receive thousands of teacher applications every year. Do their hiring steps actually pick the teachers who do best in the classroom?
What they did
Researchers followed applicants through written assessments, a personal interview and a sample lesson, then compared each hired teacher's scores with their later job evaluations.
The result
Academic background and screening scores both strongly predicted later performance. But the district was not using these signals well: academic background was almost unrelated to who got hired.
What this means for your school
A written task, a structured interview and a sample lesson, scored the same way for every candidate, tell you a lot about future performance, if you use the scores when you decide. That is how we recruit.
