Teach Primary is a free classroom-observation tool for collecting evidence about teaching in grades 1–6 and supporting efforts to improve teaching quality. It records time spent learning, teaching practices linked to cognitive and socioemotional skills, and aspects of the learning environment. Observers use three brief snapshots of 1–10 seconds for time on task, followed by two 15-minute lesson observations for teaching-practice scores. The framework covers Classroom Culture, Instruction, and Socioemotional Skills through nine elements and 28 behaviors. Inclusive, responsive teaching and whole-child development are cross-cutting concerns. Users can add locally relevant elements or remove unsuitable ones, and local video can contextualize observer training. Suggested uses include system diagnostics, policy or program monitoring and evaluation, and identifying teacher strengths and support needs. Resources cover consultation, training, field collection, analysis, and reporting. Data collection can use SurveyCTO on phones, tablets, or computers, or paper with later Excel entry. Stata programs support cleaning and analysis. A five-day training manual and reliability exam are included. The tool is not intended for high-stakes teacher evaluation.
