Professional Development Spending in the Boston Public Schools:
A Joint Report of the Boston Plan for Excellence and the Boston Public Schools
ERS performed a repeat analysis in 2001 which showed resources being used in much more focused, integrated ways to support the district wide professional development strategy. An additional Professional Development audit, performed by Rachel Curtis, Associate Superintendent for Teaching and Learning, using the ERS coding scheme, has resulted in recommendations to invest in principal capacity and create accountability around resource management.
