Can your school meet its NEW
performance management commitments?

The Government is rewriting performance management regulations to help schools tackle poor teaching more robustly. Many schools are implied to have ignored the problem of incompetent teachers or encouraged/pressurised them to go elsewhere. By September, all schools will be required to have adopted the new rules but they are being phased in before this – for example academies are expected to adopt the new procedures as soon as they are finalised. 

However, the process has been likened to starting disciplinary proceedings with every single staff member at the same time! One likely outcome of the new system is a massive increase in teachers taking their school to employment tribunals. How can you possibly reduce the chance of this happening and protect your school in case it does? 

With this straightforward handbook, plus documents on our secure website (or CD-ROM), you will be able to: 

• Train your staff to deliver effective performance reviews – with comprehensive training and support materials, your staff will be supported every step of the way.
• Identify and pro-actively manage poor performance – make sure you have the backing of the law in disciplinary and competency cases with our up-to-date, professionally-written template letters, record forms and step-by-step guidance notes.
• Introduce full and transparent CPD for all staff – our simple-to-use template CPD programmes make it quick and easy to adopt pathways to effectively develop teaching and support staff.
• Stick with the advice of a company you can trust – we already help hundreds of schools on subjects as diverse as dealing with Ofsted inspections, health and safety planning and safeguarding. Our authors are undisputed experts in their fields whose opinions really count!
