Where We WorkTeach Plus Pennsylvania

Teach Plus Pennsylvania

Welcome to Teach Plus Pennsylvania! Our mission is to empower excellent, experienced, and diverse teachers to take leadership over key policy and practice issues that advance equity, opportunity, and student success. In pursuing our mission, Teach Plus is guided by our Student Opportunity Mandate: All students should have the opportunity to achieve their potential in an education system defined by its commitment to equity, its responsiveness to individual needs, and its ability to prepare students for postsecondary success.

We provide teachers with training and opportunities to change and influence policies and practice at the school, district, and state level—achieving change in schools and in the broader education system. We help elevate teacher voice and teacher leadership in service of improved student opportunity at the school, local, and state levels.

Teach Plus PA’s instructional leadership work began in 2017 with the T3 program in the School District of Philadelphia, where T3 teacher leaders received Teach Plus coaching and support to lead their grade teams and improve student outcomes. In the first three years, T3 partner schools improved faster than the district average and developed systems of shared leadership. Teach Plus PA’s policy work began in 2020 with a Teacher Policy Advisory Board and expanded to the first full Teaching Policy Fellowship in 2021. Policy fellows learn about education policymaking and advocate for equitable policies in areas such as school funding, early childhood education, teacher diversity, and teacher preparation.
