Academic Leadership//

December 10, 2009

  • Do not require sufficient support and evaluation of new teachers, a problem since most districts rarely opt to exceed state requirements
  • Do not require or even allow a teacher's effectiveness to be considered when granting tenure, although states control how and when tenure is awarded
  • Cling to anachronistic compensation schemes rather than advancing differentiated pay systems
  • Are lagging in the development of the systems necessary for identifying effective teachers
  • Place a disproportionate emphasis on providing pension benefits to retiring teachers at the expense of providing benefits that would appeal to younger teachers
  • Allow far too many ineffective teachers to remain in the classroom and gain tenure, including teachers who repeatedly fail to meet the state's own licensing standards
