GAT includes standards for all international school roles, including:

• Teachers
• Teacher Leaders
• School Counselors
• Principals and Assistant Principals
• School System Roles
• School Heads

GAT focuses on continuous improvement by allowing educators to:

• Set professional goals
• Reflect meaningfully on practice
• Upload artifacts like lesson plans, student work, and videos
• Engage in dialogue with school leaders

The emphasis is on authentic growth, not checklist evaluations.

We recommend these approaches:

1. Start with Leadership Teams
   Use GAT with department heads, coaches, or coordinators to model the process.
   
   
2. Pilot with Volunteers
   Choose a group of engaged staff to explore and share the tool with others.
   
   
3. Launch with a Standards Walkthrough
   Introduce the Standards of Practice in a collaborative workshop.
   
   
4. Start with a Focus Standard
   Align the initial rollout with one or two school-wide goals.
