How opinions are split over the new pay structures set for September 2013
From September 2013, head teachers across England will have the power to give their staff a pay rise according to their perceived performance against targets.
Offering children the best education possible is what teachers, parents and the Government all want but will performance based pay incentives mean a higher standard of teaching?Some academy schools in England already have the power to pay according to performance. Proponents of the new scheme suggest that it should be the case that teachers are rewarded for their effort and achievements even if this does mean that not all will see their pay rise year-on-year.
