The document summarizes Ontario's Performance Appraisal of Experienced Teachers (PAET) process, which was introduced in 2007 as a replacement for the previous Teacher Performance Appraisal (TPA) system. Key aspects of the PAET include only requiring appraisals every 5 years, using a satisfactory/unsatisfactory rating scale, emphasizing teacher-authored Annual Learning Plans, and removing parent/student surveys. The process involves competency-based evaluation across 5 domains, with observations and meetings between teachers and principals.
