Once individuals have qualified as teachers, there is a strong sense of getting on with the job of teaching, rather than beginning a journey of critical reflection and change. This study aims to address and contribute towards shifting this ethos and establishing a joint reflective school culture.enTeachersRatingSouth AfricaEducational change, South AfricaInitiating a school based teacher appraisal process: A study in educational innovation in South AfricaThesisUniversity of the Western Cape
