I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Craig Randall, author of "Trust-Based Observations: Maximising Teaching and Learning Growth", about his insights on transforming teacher evaluations. In this episode, Craig explains the principles behind trust-based observations - a system he developed to focus on teacher growth and improvement through trust, reflection, and collaboration. We discuss the importance of building relationships, setting goals, and moving away from the "checklist" mentality of traditional classroom observations. Craig shares stories from his experience as an educator and administrator, and provides guidance on how schools can implement trust-based practices. He emphasises the need to see teachers as partners in growth, not subjects for top-down evaluation.
