Tying education spending to performance is very difficult because student performance is primarily due to socioeconomic factors, and not the school.

In the worst case, teachers at inner city schools who have the hardest jobs get paid the least since their students do the worst.

That's a good point. So the performance part of their pay can be set to be relative to that of other teachers in the same school.
