New York Teacher Accountability Solution Feared Unworkable -

http://www.educationnews.org/k-12-schools/cuomos-new-york-accountability-solution-feared-unworkable/

"It has emerged that the problem is that Cuomo’s solution left the details to be worked out by local school and union officials — and in many cases union officials have no intention of ceding ground. This shouldn’t be a surprise considering that the unions exist to protect and advocate for their members.

More bizarre is that Cuomo created a system with such an obvious flaw to the extent that it could be accused of being unworkable by design, when it was developed specifically to fix a 2010 teacher evaluation law which he derided as being ‘unworkable by design’.

The problem with the 2010 law was that it let the union veto any plan that negatively affected them. The problem with the new system is that it allows the unions to simply stonewall any plan that negatively impacts them..."
 
 
I suppose that is a problem.  Then again, having bureaucrats reform education is as logical as inviting Jack Markell to re-plumb your home...or expecting him to include the NAACP on the Charter School Taskforce...
