    I would be interested in how this works.

    Would it be a bit like Enron ?

    It sounds like a great plan if you wish to manage by fear, retribution and paranoia.
    Surely it's results that matter.
    Schools etc should be run for the benefit of the clients, not the staff.

    no one in the public sector is paid on results. that is half of the problem.

    when i suggested to a moaning teacher friend of mine that he should be paid according the results his class achieved, he laughed. he mocked.

    public sector cretins. no idea.


    Nice to see you calling so many people, your posts show you to be an ignorant man

    Maybe headteachers should be made to pay for the fact that people come out of education unable to differentiate between there and their and mis- and miss!!

    and importantly theres no respect of the money they are spending. lack of care and total disregard. also they need to get away from having to clear budgets by the end of the year. better to reward those who don't spend it all rather than the other way round

    'cos that would mean you'd get more money for working in a posh private school full of keeny nerds than some shitheap comprehensive where its a result if the kids dont leave with a criminal record, and that's where good teachers are actually needed

    Why not a bit more competition?
    Say two teachers, same year, same intake. The one that gets the best results at the end of the year gets paid more than the other.

    the lefty wants all the same pay so the incompetent ones are dragged up.

    interesting

    but what is the same intake?
    how do you measure the intake?
    how do you measure the results
    who measures them?
    do the views of the parents matter

    suppose in the sports class is a young Beckham, does the teacher get paid megabucks
