Teacher of the Deaf Elaborations to the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers

NAATD Committee worked with AITSL to create the Teacher of the Deaf Elaborations to the Professional Standards for Teachers. 

This document seeks to clearly articulate the unique skills and knowledge of qualified Teachers of the Deaf in addition to those of our Mainstream peers.

This document should be used alongside the AITSL Professional Standards for Teachers.

You should be using the documents to 
  1. Review your development against those in this document and plan future professional learning needs.
  2. Guide performance reviews and professional discussions with your line manager who may not be from the field.
  3. Act as a guide for universities that offer post-graduate programs focusing on the training of teachers involved in the education of Deaf and Hard of Hearing children develop and evaluate their coursework.
  4. Act as a guide for employing authorities, as the Elaborations outline the skills, knowledge and abilities that NAATD believe are required by teachers employed to work as Teachers of the Deaf.
