    Historique

    The Branch evolved from the Ontario Teacher Testing Project, created in the Strategic Planning and Elementary/Secondary Programs Division in 2000 as a result of promises made in the 1999 election campaign and subsequent throne speech.

    In 2002 it was renamed the Teaching Policy and Program Office but remained in the same Division.

    Sometime between 2004 and 2005 it was renamed the Teaching Policy and Standards Branch and was moved to the Instructional and Leadership Development Division. In 2014 it moved to the Leadership and Learning Environment Division, with no change in function.

    In 2018 the Branch was renamed the Professionalism, Teaching Policy and Standards Branch and placed in the new Student Achievement Division.
