The Next Education Workforce: Redesigning the Teaching Job through Team-Based Models

The traditional “one-teacher, one-classroom” staffing model is not working for adults or children: teachers are isolated and burned out, while students’ unique needs are rarely met. The Next Education Workforce is an approach to strategic school staffing that reimagines what the job of teaching looks like and how classrooms operate. Schools form teams of educators with distributed expertise, supporting a shared roster of students. This session will provide information on what these models look like and how they are implemented in schools across the country. We will also share the emerging research base on how strategic school staffing models are improving both teacher and student outcomes.
