I do not have the opportunity to go abroad to learn about the education countries but few years ago was allowed to thoroughly survey the educational activities in an international school system in Ho Chi Minh City. In so many things I was "broken up", something surprised me, interesting.
That was the first time I went to the survey site, I had a little contact with a Canadian doctor. She is the principal, the general in charge of the system. I asked about how the school will hold examinations, periodic assessments, treat with good teachers like?
She repeated the words "holding exams, evaluating periodic good teachers," and she shrugged, she laughed and nodded, then looked at me from the strange planet down. Honestly, I felt embarrassed at her interpretation because her expression was that I asked without understanding. I have to "mitigate" by asking her translator to say that due to "familiar" with the school of Vietnam should ask about the exam, teacher evaluation good ...
Then the principal also showed understanding and sympathy for me. She persistently, enthusiastically explained to me. That, the school system in which she is in charge is both bilingual, monolingual (high school diploma of Canada and IB International) but never tested, tested and evaluated good teachers. Is it necessary to have the teacher at the beginning of the standard MINIMUM. Minimum degree, pedagogy, ethics, love of work, love of children, creativity, meet the program requirements ...
All are evaluated according to the input standard of the system. Achieving their input standards is BETTING. When the teacher and the school or professional recruiting agency sign a contract, almost all the rights and obligations of the parties are respected. The school was not interfering in the daily work of the teacher, unless the teacher did the wrong thing described in the contract. With the "minimum" standard, the school almost does not care what the teacher is better at doing. Only the results achieved with clear criteria for each student in each phase have been identified in accordance with program standards. The only standard wrong is that the leader knows right away.

In terms of method, the teacher is standard, but teaching materials do not need to follow a textbook at all. So, a lot of lectures are self-taught online to update, to guide and discuss with students. Having more knowledge, students know more about the teacher is normal, even encouraging students to know as much as possible (of course knowledge and clarity by the teacher the parties have signed the contract). In general, with a lesson and knowledge requirements program, teacher full rights autonomy method, its teaching tools. As long as the student is interested, "minimum" is the student's master knowledge, basic requirements, and then self-improvement, creativity ...
Periodically, teachers will be supplemented, fostered new knowledge, new methods to meet the requirements of the growing era as rushing. It is also the rights and obligations of the parties under the contract. If the teacher fails, the contract is terminated. If the school does not meet the requirements for specialization, there are no minimum requirements to teach students, the school must be responsible. At that time, the teacher must teach overtime to ensure students have the knowledge and skills required for the school to pay or pay great compensation. Teachers ensure excellent criteria set out also know how well they enjoy the contract ...
The principal also emphasized that there is no need for teachers to be too good because there are not so many "good" cases that can be easily disturbed by the criteria, program requirements, lessons. This is "bad". Because education is a process, learners accumulate at each level and each individual is capable of receiving differently. Therefore, if good teacher evaluation in general or anything is good, it will not effectively promote education. It will lead to the shaping of that good teacher for students in the subjective direction of the instructor more ...
Translated by the translator almost 3 years ago, remember, rewritten, so may not convey the will of the system principal it. However, I believe that: I understand the basic way of operating this education system.
On the occasion we are discussing, hoping or disappointed with
