Definition

  • Starting with its first report in 1996, the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future (NCTAF) has worked to ensure that teacher quality be understood as a key policy issue crucial for successful education reform in the United States. Led at its inception by North Carolina governor Jim Hunt and Stanford professor Linda Darling-Hammond, who served as the Commission's executive director, NCTAF published What Matters Most: Teaching for America's Future and called for widespread changes in how K–12 teachers are recruited, prepared, and retained.
