teacher accountability

Instructor performance oversight

Teacher accountability refers to holding teachers responsible for student outcomes, typically through standardized test scores, evaluations, or other performance metrics.

The concept gained prominence in education reform debates: The new policy tied teacher accountability to student achievement data.

Critics argue such measures oversimplify teaching quality; proponents see them as necessary for educational improvement.
