Abstract
This study examines the concept and practice of teacher performance appraisal in secondary schools, highlighting key challenges that hinder its effectiveness. It explores issues such as lack of clear evaluation criteria, inadequate training of appraisers, bias in assessment, and resistance from teachers. The paper also discusses the impact of ineffective appraisal systems on teacher motivation and instructional quality. To address these challenges, practical suggestions are proposed, including the development of standardized evaluation frameworks, capacity building for evaluators, and the incorporation of continuous feedback mechanisms. The study emphasizes the importance of a fair and transparent appraisal system in improving teacher performance and overall educational outcomes.
