No, some students' academic performances are bad, it doesn't mean they learnt nothing. Some kids have huge psychological/social issues.

There is a lot of room for favoritism and corruption in any performance evaluation. Supervisors often contrive narratives that have no basis in evidence.

To a degree, I think teachers should be paid ba
sed on merit. But as SE noted, teacher performance isn't like a test that can be graded.
Standardized tests are fine as a diagnostic measure, to see what students have learned. But when teachers are pressured to "teach to the test," then test results aren't an accurate indicator of what students know or how well they have been taught.
But if a teacher's performance rating is determined by student improvement (which can be measured by portfolios of student work), I would be on board with pay raises based on merit. Like (1)

Yes it should, and i can be monitored as well, by the teachers them selves and by their bosses. yes this mean they would have to leave the office and sit in on some classes i know. but i think they can do it. if you are teacher paid for you perfomence then teaching becomes more then just a job. this is my opinion.

As long as the reviews are fair and cannot be skewed by a teacher who might give better grades to look better. Everyone else is rated and paid on the ability to do their job effectively. Create a rubric for testing the teachers strengths and results.

no..but failure is a good reason to fire them. They should still get cost of living and years put in sort of raises if they continue to meet the school standards

I think if that were to happen there would be a lot more teachers who took the time to make sure the students were learning and not just pass them just to be rid of them. I know there are a lot of good teachers out there and I salute them all. But there are a few who really don't care if the students are learning or not.
