Teacher Incentives and Student Achievement: Evidence from New York City Public Schools
Financial incentives for teachers to increase student performance is an increasingly popular education policy around the world. This paper describes a school-based randomized trial in over two-hundred New York City public schools designed to better understand the impact of teacher incentives on student achievement. The author could find no evidence that teacher incentives increase student performance, attendance, or graduation, nor did he find any evidence that the incentives change student or teacher behavior. If anything, teacher incentives may decrease student achievement, especially in larger schools.
