Abstract

ACER is providing long-term support to governments in the Pacific Islands to improve teaching quality. Enabling teachers to positively support and engage students is a priority in the Pacific Islands. At a policy level, this means that teachers need to be empowered through opportunities for continuous development, shared understanding and accountability. Through a long-term partnership, ACER is supporting the Educational Quality and Assessment Programme (EQAP) to achieve the objectives of the Pacific Regional Education Framework (PacREF). Since 2019, ACER has supported EQAP in leading the revision of the Pacific Regional Standards for Teachers. The Standards were developed in 2010, with the revised version formally endorsed by 15 Pacific Island countries in 2023.
