More than 20 states and many school districts are currently
implementing or considering performance pay plans for teachers.
Most of the existing plans are not working. Schools are not
improving, teachers and parents are upset, students are being
denied the education they deserve, and tax dollars are being wasted
- either because the plans are built on faulty assumptions, because
they are being implemented poorly, or both. Most policy-makers have
not considered the history and past practice of performance pay,
have not developed a broad definition of performance around which
to build their plans, and don't understand how to implement
organizational change. The Peril and Promise of Performance Pay is
the first comprehensive look at the history, assumptions, and
recent experience with performance pay for teachers. It provides an
invaluable resource for school teachers, administrators, board
members, policy makers, and citizens who would like to understand
what's behind performance pay, what might work and what will not,
and how to build a school improvement effort that includes teacher
compensation as one of its strategies.
