Each evaluator independently reviews all of the evidence in the dossier.

The Judgment ProcessThe Judgment Process
Each evaluator analyzes the evidence and completes a working copy of a SAFE-T Summary (ET3) to reflect his or her own independent judgments.
13
SAFE-TSAFE-TWhat is ET3?What is ET3?
ET3 is the SAFE-T Summary template.
ET3 is the only required template.
14
SAFE-TSAFE-TWhat is ET3?What is ET3?
ET3 is not a form of evidence. ET3 is used to describe the judgments that are based on the evidence.
In addition to the judgments, ET3 includes the rationales for the judgments.

1. Judgment for each key element (34)

Following completion of the independent reviews, all members of the evaluation team must participate in a consensus meeting.

The Consensus MeetingThe Consensus Meeting
Each evaluator must bring his or her working copy of the SAFE-T Summary (ET3) that he or she has prepared independently.
18
SAFE-TSAFE-TConsensus Consensus MeetingMeeting
At the consensus meeting, the evaluators
1. present their independent reviews,
2. arrive at consensus regarding each judgment (i.e., met or not met),
3. provide a rationale for each judgment, and
4. complete a consensus-based ET3 (SAFE-T Summary) that will serve as the evaluation report.
19
SAFE-TSAFE-TConsensus ProcessConsensus Process
1. Quick polling for each key element. The chair tallies each individual evaluator’s judgment for each key element.
2. Reach consensus on the judgment (met or not met) for each key element.

A teacher can miss one key element and still “pass” a domain. If a teacher misses two or more key elements in a particular domain, he or she “fails” the domain.

To pass SAFE-T, a teacher must pass all four domains at the time of the final evaluation.
Key elements that are not met automatically become areas for improvement.
