Academic Supervision as an Effort to Strengthen Teacher Professionalism at TK Al Siddiq International

Supervision activities at TK Al Siddiq International are carried out as part of ongoing efforts to improve the quality of teaching and learning within the school. This supervision is not merely an evaluative exercise, but rather a process of guidance and professional support for teachers. Through supervision, the school seeks to ensure that the teaching and learning process runs effectively, purposefully, and in alignment with the established vision and standards.

The activity takes place in each teacher’s classroom, allowing observations to be conducted directly within the authentic learning environment. In this way, the Headteacher and observers are able to see how teachers manage their classrooms, deliver learning materials, interact with the children, and create a learning atmosphere that is both enjoyable and safe for pupils.

The supervision was conducted over four days, from Monday to Thursday, 9–12 February 2026. The supervision schedule had been distributed in advance by the Headteacher to all TK Al Siddiq International teachers. With a clear timetable in place, teachers were able to prepare their lessons properly without making excessive changes to their usual teaching style, as the supervision was designed to observe natural, day-to-day classroom practice.

In its implementation, teachers continued to teach as usual in accordance with their prepared lesson plans. The Headteacher, together with the Head of Islamic Affairs of Al Siddiq International, acted as observers in the classroom. They observed the entire learning process, from the opening activities and main lesson to the closing session. The focus of observation included teaching strategies, the use of learning media, time management, and pupils’ responses throughout the activities.

The purpose of supervision for teachers is to help enhance their professional and pedagogical competence. Through the feedback provided, teachers are able to identify their strengths to be maintained, as well as areas that require further improvement. For the Headteacher, supervision serves as a means of mapping the overall quality of teaching within the school, ensuring that standards are maintained, and planning more targeted professional development programmes for teachers.

After teaching hours concluded, each teacher received an individual evaluation and feedback session. During this stage, the Headteacher and observers delivered their observations constructively and openly. Discussions were conducted in a supportive atmosphere, ensuring that teachers felt valued and motivated to continue developing their skills. Through this supervision activity, it is hoped that the quality of education at TK Al Siddiq International will continue to improve and have a positive impact on the children’s development.
