A 360-degree evaluation is an evaluation method that involves gathering information and responses from multiple sources. This is important to gauge a person's performance and skills in a holistic manner where the evaluation can usually be carried out by employers or supervisors, colleagues, subordinate staff, and customers. However, the lack of traditional performance appraisal among teachers who are still on the one-way direction needs to be replaced with a more comprehensive appraisal such as the 360-degree evaluation is still not widely discussed especially using a strategic planning tool. Hence, this concept paper explores 360-degree evaluation of teachers through one of the tools called SCORE framework. The methodology used is the thorough analysis of grit using SCORE framework that measured among five elements such as Strengths (S), Challenges (C), Options (O), Responses (R), and Effectiveness (E). The findings highlight strengths like comprehensive assessment, reduced bias, professional development of teacher professionalism, and administrative support. However, there are significant challenges include assessment bias, limited scope, time and resource management, and openness to reflection. Solutions suggested are rewards, digital tools, socio-emotional skills, and feedback training. Feedback from teachers, policymakers, administrators, and communities, to support a more responsive education system. The effectiveness of 360-degree assessment shows outlines for enhancing teaching quality, professional growth, ethical management, and balanced feedback. Using models like SWOT, TOWS, NOISE, and SOAR could address this study's limitations. These insights are valuable for educators, administrators, policymakers, and the external community, enhancing multi-dimensional support for sustainable education quality. Future studies on 360-degree teacher evaluation could assess its long-term efficacy, the influence of cultural and technological factors, and teacher perceptions, to provide more meaningful guidance to interested parties.
