What if all teachers could achieve excellent student learning results by getting the right leadership and support? In Opportunity Culture schools, multiple career paths make this possible, expanding teachers’ opportunities while reaching more students with excellent teaching.
The guide Career Paths and Pay in an Opportunity Culture presents examples of these career paths—using multi-school leaders, multi-classroom leaders, and other roles for teachers, who can collaborate, improve, and excel on teams led by multi-classroom leaders. Teachers and principals in all these paths reach more students with excellent teaching and earn substantially more for it, within schools’ budgets.
