  • diagnose what teachers know and can do, starting professional development from that point and adapting the approach based on their developing expertise

  • help teachers improve through evidence-based professional development focused on improving classroom teaching

  • gain an understanding of what teachers have learned by reviewing patterns of performance over a number of assessments

  • develop and lead a team of colleagues who can facilitate a range of professional development approaches
