The National Teacher and Principal Survey (NTPS) is a redesign of the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS). NTPS will be an in-depth, nationally representative survey of first through twelfth grade public school teachers, principals and schools. Kindergarten teachers in schools with at least a first grade are also surveyed. The NTPS will be conducted every two years utilizing core content and a series of rotating modules to allow timely collection of important education trends as well as trend analysis. Topics covered include characteristics of teachers, principals, schools, teacher training opportunities, retention, retirement, hiring, and shortages. This submission is for OMB approval to conduct preliminary field activities prior to data collection. These activities will take place in early 2015 and include submitting NTPS research applications to special districts that require prior research approval before their schools can be recruited for the study. The lead time is necessary to secure approval for the NTPS from these districts prior to the start of data collection.

This is a reinstatement with change. Estimated respondent burden in this request shows a decrease from last approval, because this request covers only the the special districts' research approval process activities and pre-contact letter to schools planned for the NTPS 2015-2016, while the previous clearance was for the full scale data collection for 2012-13 Teacher Follow-up Survey (TFS:2013) and Principal Follow-up Survey (PFS:2013) to the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS). This request, in turn, will be followed in early 2015 by a request to conduct the full scale NTPS 2015-2016 data collection activities.
