'Give teachers performance-related pay'Friday 13 November 2009 Teachers who perform well should be given performance-related bonuses, with pupils, other teachers and school boards judging how well they do their jobs, the education council says in a new report entitled 'Towards more targeted education'. The report also suggests increasing class sizes to between 50 and 75 pupils and having more than one teacher in charge. This would allow teachers to talk about specific problems with smaller sub-groups of pupils, the NRC quotes the report as saying. Education is one of the areas of government policy facing spending cuts of up to 20% as part of government efforts to get the budget deficit under control. The biggest teaching union AOb has already dismissed the report as a hype which contains no evidence that teaching can be made cheaper and more productive, the NRC says. © DutchNews.nl Get the DutchNews.nl newsletter in your mailbox: Click here to subscribe
It would be interesting to see what type of a system they would put in place to judge performance. First, do not increase class sizes, seperate those that truly want to learn from the problem makers and then let the teachers teach rather than have spend most of thier time trying to learn how to just get through the day because of a handful of problem children. Many teachers here are frustrated because they do not get the proper support to rid thier classes of those that refuse to mind and learn By bet | November 13, 2009 7:32 PM Place your comments: |

I think that should be the same no matter what kind of work you do in Holland. People who show up for work on time and work hard should be finacially rewarded. I'm a hard and dependable worker and it gets me mad when I am being paid the same money as lazy people who are always late and call in sick when the weather is nice.
