Performance Based Pay For Educators: Assessing The Evidence

A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding and Implementing Performance-Based Pay for Educators

Performance-based pay (PBP) is a system of compensation that links teacher pay to student outcomes. PBP is designed to motivate teachers to improve instruction and increase student achievement.
