Conference report makes the following changes to the 3rd edition.
Amends the short title.
Amends GS 115C-12(22) to provide that the annual report required by this subsection is to be known as the State of the Teaching Profession in North Carolina beginning in 2016 (previously, referred to only as an annual report and required the data to be reported disaggregated by the effectiveness ratings of teachers on the NC Educator Evaluation System). Amends the items that must be included in the annual teacher transition report, requiring the number of teachers that left employment in hard-to-staff schools to be reported (previously, required the reporting of the number of hard-to-staff schools) as well as the number of teachers that left employment in hard-to-staff subject areas (previously, required the reporting of the number of positions in hard-to-staff subject areas). Adds new subsection which requires the annual teacher transition report to disaggregate the data by teacher effectiveness status at a statewide level and prohibits the disaggregation of the data on teacher effectiveness status at a local school administrative unit level. Sets out further limitations and requirements concerning the data to be reported, including preventing confidential information from being reported.
Makes organizational changes.
