Opinion: California Teacher Tenure Ruling Won’t Produce Better Teachers

Wednesday, 11 June 2014 | by Pat's Picks

A judge’s ruling that California’s contract with teachers violates the state’s constitutional guarantee to an equitable education is likely to set off teacher tenure battles across the nation. In the Los Angeles Times, education professor Jack Schneider writes that the judge’s ruling will do nothing to solve the problem of teacher inequality. Schneider argues that veteran teachers stall out not because they have tenure, but because they lack guidance and support.
