| Summary: | This study sought to examine the conditions that facilitate staff development in Singapore schools. It looked at teachers' perceptions of their roles within the Singapore education system and how this affected their professional lives. As the conditions involved are better examined in schools with stable populations and environments, the study focussed mainly on two schools with established cultures and traditions, and a core of long-serving teachers. In addition, three other schools with different characteristics were included for comparison and contrast. |
