Section one provides an overview of the general approach, main components and objectives of the framework, as well as an explanation of the evidence base that supported its development. Section two focuses on the first component of the framework, and describes the categories that are relevant to produce a comprehensive descriptive account of the teacher policies that are in place in a given education system. Section three, in turn, focuses on policy guidance. It reviews those policies that, based on the available evidence to date, are known to matter most to improve student outcomes. It describes in detail the evidence supporting each of these policies, as well as the ways in which high performing education systems combine them to ensure outstanding student outcomes. The document concludes presenting an account of how the framework is expected to evolve as new evidence on teacher policies becomes available.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACADEMIC POSITIONSACADEMIC TEACHERACHIEVEMENT TESTSADMISSION CRITERIAAPTITUDEASSOCIATE PROFESSORBACKGROUND PAPERSBEGINNING TEACHERSBETTER EDUCATED STUDENTSBETTER TEACHERSCAREERCAREER ADVANCEMENTCAREER OPPORTUNITIESCAREER PATHCAREERSCERTIFIED TEACHERSCIVIL SERVICECLASS SIZECLASSROOMCLASSROOM EXPERIENCECLASSROOM MANAGEMENTCLASSROOM SIZECLASSROOM TEACHERSCLASSROOMSCOMPETENCIESCOMPULSORY EDUCATIONCONTEXTUAL FACTORSCURRICULUMDECENTRALIZATIONDEGREESDISADVANTAGED STUDENTSDISCIPLINESDROP-OUTSECONOMIC GROWTHEDUCATED STUDENTSEDUCATION DEGREEEDUCATION EXPENDITURESEDUCATION LEVELEDUCATION OUTCOMESEDUCATION POLICIESEDUCATION POLICYEDUCATION QUALITYEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION SPENDINGEDUCATION SYSTEMEDUCATION SYSTEMSEDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENTEDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIESEDUCATIONAL PRACTICESEDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTSEDUCATIONAL RESEARCHEFFECT ON STUDENT ACHIEVEMENTEFFECT ON STUDENT LEARNINGEFFECTIVE TEACHERSEFFECTIVE TEACHINGELEMENTSEMPLOYMENTENTRANCE REQUIREMENTSENTRY REQUIREMENTSEQUAL OPPORTUNITYEXAMSEXPENDITURESEXPERIENCED TEACHERSFORMAL EDUCATIONHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RESOURCESINCENTIVES FOR TEACHERSINSTRUCTIONINTERVENTIONSJOB SECURITYKNOWLEDGE BASELEADERSHIPLEADERSHIP SKILLSLEARNINGLEARNING CURVELEARNING DIFFICULTIESLEARNING OUTCOMESLEARNING PROCESSLITERACYLITERATURELOCAL LABOR MARKETLOW-INCOME STUDENTSMATHEMATICSMENTORSNATIONAL EDUCATIONNUMBER OF SCHOOLSNUMBER OF TEACHERSPARENT INVOLVEMENTPEDAGOGIC SKILLSPEDAGOGYPRIMARY EDUCATIONPROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENTPROVISION OF EDUCATIONPUBLIC SCHOOLPUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERPUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERSPUBLIC SCHOOLSPUPIL-TEACHER RATIOQUALIFIED TEACHERSQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY EDUCATIONQUALITY OF EDUCATIONQUALITY OF TEACHINGQUALITY TEACHINGREADERSRURAL AREASSALARY INCREASESSANITATIONSCHOOL DISTRICTSSCHOOL HEADSSCHOOL IMPROVEMENTSCHOOL INFRASTRUCTURESCHOOL LEADERSSCHOOL LEVELSCHOOL PERFORMANCESCHOOL PRINCIPALSSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOL SYSTEMSSCHOOL TEACHERSCHOOL TEACHERSSCHOOLSSECONDARY EDUCATIONSECONDARY SCHOOLSECONDARY SCHOOLSSERVICE TRAININGSKILLED INDIVIDUALSSOCIAL MOBILITYSTANDARDIZED TESTSSTUDENT ABSENCESSTUDENT ACHIEVEMENTSTUDENT LEARNINGSTUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMESSTUDENT OUTCOMESSTUDENT PERFORMANCESTUDENT TEACHERSSTUDENT-TEACHER RATIOSSTUDENTS PER TEACHERSUBJECT KNOWLEDGESUBJECT MATTERSUBJECT MATTER KNOWLEDGESUBJECTSSUPPLY OF TEACHERSTEACHERTEACHER ABSENTEEISMTEACHER EDUCATIONTEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMSTEACHER EFFECTIVENESSTEACHER MOTIVATIONTEACHER ORGANIZATIONSTEACHER PAYTEACHER PERFORMANCETEACHER PREPARATIONTEACHER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENTTEACHER QUALITYTEACHER RATIOSTEACHER SALARIESTEACHER SHORTAGESTEACHER STANDARDSTEACHER TRAININGTEACHER TRAINING PROGRAMSTEACHER TURNOVERTEACHER UNIONSTEACHER WORKFORCETEACHER-STUDENT RATIOTEACHERSTEACHINGTEACHING ACTIVITYTEACHING EXPERIENCETEACHING FORCETEACHING MATERIALSTEACHING METHODSTEACHING PERFORMANCETEACHING PRACTICETEACHING PROCESSTEACHING QUALITYTEACHING STRATEGIESTERTIARY EDUCATIONTRADITIONAL APPROACHTRAINING COURSESTRAINING PROGRAMSUNIVERSITY DEGREEUNIVERSITY LEVELURBAN SLUMSVILLAGE EDUCATIONVILLAGE EDUCATION COMMITTEEWORK ENVIRONMENTWORK EXPERIENCEYOUTHWorld Bank10.1596/11926
