Merit Pay is an economic incentive program that has gained much traction with the current education reform movement. In basic terms, teachers are awarded a bonus to their salary based on their performance in the classroom, typically measured using a combination of live observations by department heads, grade level coordinators, or administrators and a system of record-keeping for teacher professional behavior.
Most schools with a merit pay system do not link the incentive to student performance, but to the professional practices of the teacher. In most applications, it is an effort to ensure that teachers are meeting minimum standards for things like answering parent emails and phone calls in a timely manner, keeping their classroom enviorment organized, interacting professionally with colleagues, and so on. Some merit pay systems also include professional development practices as part of the criteria. Teachers must provide evidence that they are pursuing graduate level credits, attending conferences, or engaging in other professional development activitites.
