Teachers and educational policy: Markets, populism, and im/possibilities for resistance

Abstract: This double special issue, “Teachers and educational policy: markets, populism, and im/possibilities for resistance” explores the figurative politics of the teacher in current education systems around the world. In this introduction to the issue, we discuss how and why teachers have emerged as a key focus of contemporary policy reform.

“…Accountability policy moves intend teachers to be 'held to account' (Lingard, Sellar, and Lewis 2017, 1), but in reality, they separate accountability for education from informed judgement of teachers as professionals (Henig 2013;Lewis and Holloway 2019).

“…São muitos os estudos (CANBOLAT, 2021;PARCERISA et al, 2022;SPRINGER et al, 2012;STACEY et al, 2022) que evidenciam as polêmicas e buscam compreender os efeitos dessas políticas de responsabilização baseadas no desempenho e o uso dos bônus. Em 2013, Ravitch analisou os resultados de diferentes estudos que buscaram a relação entre o incremento salarial de professores e a melhora do desempenho dos estudantes, enfatizando análises de experiências em diferentes estados estadunidenses que foram descontinuadas por razões como: ausência de evidências de efetividade dessa política; percentual pequeno que os bônus representam na remuneração; ausência de adesão dos professores para sustentação de práticas de competição por longo tempo, fazendo com que, apesar de melhoras momentâneas em resultados, estas não têm longevidade.…”
