GET /teacher-evaluation/enhanced/123/report/?time_filter=last_6_months
# Using teacher email (registered teacher)
GET /teacher-evaluation/enhanced/teacher@school.edu/report/?time_filter=last_6_months
# Using teacher name (manual entry)
GET /teacher-evaluation/enhanced/John%20Smith/report/?time_filter=custom&start_date=2024-01-01&end_date=2024-06-30
Export with Date Range
# Export for registered teacher by ID
GET /teacher-evaluation/enhanced/123/export/pdf/?start_date=2024-01-01&end_date=2024-06-30
# Export for registered teacher by email
GET /teacher-evaluation/enhanced/teacher@school.edu/export/word/?time_filter=last_year
