Interesting opinion: Unfortunately, teachers aren’t exactly - TopicsExpress



          

Interesting opinion: Unfortunately, teachers aren’t exactly agitating for change. Their average starting salary is $45,000 and tops out at around $80,000 to $100,000 a year, depending on the province. The underlying assumption is that linking pay to performance would erode teacher salaries. But that doesn’t have to be the case. Why couldn’t the best teachers make more than the current ceiling, or accelerate through the salary grid? The existing teacher-compensation model is simple and easy to administer. It guarantees labour peace. It also cuts down the tall poppies, discouraging the best and the hardest-working teachers. It’s time to question its value in the 21st-century classroom. theglobeandmail/globe-debate/editorials/the-best-teachers-should-be-paid-better/article16502608/#dashboard/follows/
