Benchmarking performance of teachers in preschools: Towards a framework for early childhood education quality
Authors
Dr. Asha Menon
Abstract
The quality of early childhood education is closely linked to the
performance of preschool teachers, whose practices directly influence
developmental outcomes in young children. This study explores current
approaches to benchmarking teacher performance in preschool settings, analysing
existing frameworks, identifying implementation challenges, and proposing a
context-sensitive model. Using a mixed-methods design, data were collected
through document analysis, semi-structured interviews, classroom observations,
and surveys. Results highlight the lack of standardized benchmarks, the
importance of process quality, and the potential of formative evaluation for
professional development. Findings suggest the need for a holistic, scalable
benchmarking framework that aligns with developmental goals and supports
continuous teacher improvement
