A 2024 Learning Policy Institute brief\u00a0identified three preparation factors most strongly associated with TPA success:\u00a0strong\u00a0program support for the TPA process, frequent and substantive clinical feedback from faculty supervisors, and deep content-specific training in teaching\u00a0literacy and mathematics. Candidates\u00a0in\u00a0programs with the highest\u00a0clinical feedback\u00a0ratings\u00a0were more than twice as likely to pass a TPA across all attempts, compared\u00a0with\u00a0candidates\u00a0in\u00a0the lowest-rated programs. Literacy preparation\u00a0showed similarly\u00a0strong\u00a0effects, with candidates from the strongest programs showing nearly twice the odds of passing.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:280}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">These are not incidental features of Attallah&#8217;s\u00a0programs.

As a 2023-24 Deans for Impact fellow, she worked\u00a0with\u00a0national peers examining\u00a0what makes teacher preparation effective, with\u00a0attention to\u00a0assessments that translate\u00a0preparation into measurable classroom readiness.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:280}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">The fellowship sharpened an\u00a0existing conviction: TPA outcomes are not\u00a0merely\u00a0a compliance metric. They\u00a0signal\u00a0whether candidates have\u00a0learned to teach\u00a0and whether their program gave them the conditions to do so. The trajectory from 97% in 2024 to 100% in 2025 and 2026 reflects\u00a0that conviction\u00a0built into\u00a0program design, from\u00a0clinical placements\u00a0to how faculty supervisors observe and respond to candidates in the field.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:280}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">&#8220;This is what preparation should look like,&#8221; Dean Miller has said. &#8220;Not students hoping they pass, but teachers who have already demonstrated they are ready.&#8221;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:280}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">WHAT IT MEANS FOR ATTALLAH GRADUATES AND THEIR STUDENTS<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559738&quot;:360,&quot;335559739&quot;:120,&quot;335572079&quot;:6,&quot;335572080&quot;:1,&quot;335572081&quot;:10800093,&quot;469789806&quot;:&quot;single&quot;}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Every Attallah graduate who enters a California classroom this fall does so\u00a0with both\u00a0a credential\u00a0and\u00a0documented evidence that they can plan instruction, teach effectively, and reflect on student learning in ways that meet the state&#8217;s professional standards for beginning teachers. The CalTPA is designed to assess\u00a0those capacities, and Attallah&#8217;s candidates have now met that standard completely and consecutively.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:280}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Students\u00a0in those classrooms benefit directly.
