Performance Related Pay for Teachers…impossible to quantify!

Teacher reading a book to young children

Here’s my take on the story that appeared on the BBC website yesterday regarding proposals to introduce performance related pay for teachers…. Article


Performance related pay in the teaching profession is surely impossible to quantify?


Every lesson in every classroom on any given day presents different challenges.


The variables are endless; class size, location, age, demographic. Along with that each and every cohort is unique; possibly similar or totally different from the last and the next.


And how do we measure performance? Exam results? Disciplinary record? Attendance?


As well as that, performance related pay naturally introduces competition which can breed disharmony.


Teachers should be paid equally and fairly.


Would love to know your opinion!
