[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Several reasons that schools don't really invest in teachers:

1) the better independent schools lead to strong college outcomes regardless; colleges want kids who can pay full freight and do work

2) there are always some exceptional teachers at the best independents, regardless of the salaries, so keeping more of them in any school doesn't really matter

3) independent school teachers are single year contract at will employees and schools put soft pressure on not to discuss salaries

4) parents for the most part care more about college matriculation than the actual quality of teaching, and parents are the customers

5) admin salary bloat; more admin positions and they're getting paid more [/quote]

So they're like public schools?[/quote]

Some of the challenges are similar.

Public school teachers often draw better salaries on account of organized labor helping to set pricing even in areas that don't have unions.

Private school teachers appreciate some smaller headaches and more autonomy.

Teachers, in both cases, are often undervalued in comparison to administrators, but so it goes. [/quote]
