Beginning Teacher Support Plan (BTSP) Peer Review Process
Overview:
Districts with approved BTSP plans, participate in a regionally-based annual peer review and support system to provide the highest quality support to beginning teachers.
- The Peer Review Process is on a 5-year cycle that is conducted annually, concluding with a formal review after the 5th year. PSUs complete a Self-Assessment of their programs.
- During the year, PSUs are partnered with a critical friend to review their Beginning Teacher Support Programs.
- During the Peer Review, PSUs provide information on each standard and element as it pertains to their specific program and share artifacts as evidence to support their level of proficiency.
- By the 5th year, PSU programs are expected to show growth on all the standards and elements listed on the Peer Review rubric. If not, the PSU will receive additional support from DPI to assist in the growth of the LEA/Charter beginning teacher support program.
