| Abstract: | The Science Education Professional Development (SEPD) Project was commissioned by the Commonwealth Department of Employment,
Education and Training (DEET) as part of its Projects of National Significance Program. Its brief was to develop a national
strategy for enhancing the professional development of science teachers. This paper summarises one component of the Project's
work, an exploration of the feasibility of establishing professional standards or expectations for teachers of science. The
aim was to give clearer purpose and direction to professional development planning and to provide a more valid basis for evaluating
science teachers for career development.
