Abstract

Effective educator performance is crucial for the success of any educational system. In the Eastern Cape Department of Education (ECDoE) faces significant challenges in ensuring consistent and high-quality performance among educators. The purpose of this study is to propose a training framework tailored to address the specific needs of educators in the Eastern Cape, aiming to enhance their professional skills and ultimately improve student outcomes. The framework integrates multiple components, including needs assessment, professional development programmes, mentoring and coaching initiatives, and continuous evaluation mechanisms. Data was collected using mixed research methods. In depth interviews were used to collect data from five Human Resource Development officials of the Eastern Cape Department of Education. Survey questionnaires were used to collect data from 267 educators. Qualitative data was analysed using thematic data analysis techniques whilst descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse data from survey questionnaire. By implementing this training framework, the Eastern Cape Department of Education aims to empower educators with the necessary skills, knowledge, and support systems to excel in their roles. Through targeted professional development, mentoring, and continuous evaluation. The framework seeks to cultivate a culture of excellence and continuous improvement within the education system, ultimately leading to enhanced educator performance and improved student outcomes in the Eastern Cape Province
