Today, the restructuring of teaching profession is becoming everywhere in Europe a common objective in implementing targets, performance and effectiveness measurements, even if there are some differences between countries. The teaching force’s efficiency and effectiveness is considered as a mean to improve student scores in tests and exams. New Public Management is based on some principles of economic and financial rationality aiming efficiency and effectiveness supported by regulative organizations (ministries or agencies) which strengthen accountability requirements. This link between management and accountability is used to justify the mastery of public expenditures in education and particularly the rationalization of costs in human resources management. The paper examines critically some effects of performance management on educational professions in showing how accountability policies are renewed in their contents and instruments.
