Recruitment and Retention

This Research & Policy Brief offers a discussion of the research base relating to the equitable distribution of teachers and provides strategies for addressing this challenge.

This publication focuses on six strategies for recruiting highly qualified teachers in mathematics, science, and special education.

The final report in this series by the National Comprehensive Center for Teacher Quality and Public Agenda focuses on the strengths and possible deficits of new teacher training. The research described in this report points to two specific areas in which teacher training may be lacking: preparedness for the diversity of the contemporary American classroom and teaching students with special needs.

This new TQ Center online resource responds to the need for detailed information about the design, implementation, and delivery of teacher evaluation models in practice in districts and states.
