Research on the Relationship Between Teachers Unconditional Payment Increase and Students Performance

Many developing and developed countries have paid more and more attention to students education. Important policy decisions reflect the relationship between teachers and students performance. Expanding school access to students in different financial situations, improving teachers attendance rates, and increasing teachers mobility are all examples of ongoing policies. Among all the policies, the most trending and attractive policy is to increase teachers unconditional payment and thus increase students performance. In this article, by reviewing research papers and case studies by economists, the articles found that increasing teachers unconditional payment could increase students performance to some extent because it increased teachers job satisfaction, work performance in class, motivation, and qualification of professional skills. Some studies show a positive relationship between higher teachers unconditional payment and students performance. However, the effects of the policy are restricted to experienced teachers and top and wealthy students.
