From the Background paper for the Oslo Summit on Education for Development

"INVESTING IN TEACHERS IS INVESTING IN LEARNING A PREREQUISITE FOR THE TRANSFORMATIVE POWER OF EDUCATION


"1. At the system level, develop a shared understanding of what is necessary to ensure that all learners are taught by good teachers and served by effective teaching. This will signal that the country is firmly focused on learning and will direct all partners to meet these criteria.

2. Re-orient initial teacher education and continuous professional development programmes to respond to challenging classroom conditions.

3. Recognize the need for effective and participatory school leadership focused on teaching effectiveness and learning.

4. Invest in teaching and learning materials, especially textbooks and supplementary reading books."
