New Report: Performance-Pay for Teachers

A new report from the Center for Teacher Quality supports performance-pay plans that advance student achievement and the teaching profession. This new study proposes rewarding small teams of teachers who raise student achievement together; rewarding teachers who accept challenging assignments in high-needs schools; and redesigning pay systems so that teacher success, not seniority or graduate degrees, determines maximum teacher pay. The report, Performance-Pay for Teachers: Designing a System that Students Deserve, is the first to be issued by TeacherSolutions, an initiative of the Center for Teaching Quality; a link to the report is provided below.
