Those who can't
An article from Will Hutton. Normally he talks a lot of sense, but here he picks the wrong target. In my experience head teachers know full well who their weakest teachers are and would love the power to sack them. What they don't like is bunches of failed teachers (which is, at least, the perception of OFSTED inspectors within schools) coming in and telling them how to improve their school based on two or three days' observations, when they are slogging their guts out all year round to improve as best they can within the constraints of the system.
