  10. New DFE Model PolicyAppraisal and Capability • Changes became effective from 1st September 2012 • New DFE Model Policy combines Appraisal and Capability into one document and links the process • More flexible about processes • Now clear evidence based performance related pay

  11. The Sutton Trust • Effects of high quality teaching significant for pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds • Over 1 school year pupils gain 1.5 years’ worth of learning with very effective teachers compared to 0.5years with poorly performing teachers • The difference between good to outstanding teaching and poor teaching is a whole year’s learning

  12. Appraisal

  13. Appraisal (similarities) • Requirement to establish a policy for annual appraisal of teachers (not support staff as yet) • Policy ensures that objectives are set annually for each teacher and that these are linked to the school improvement plan • Much of the process remains similar • Objectives setting is still by “agreement” but if no agreement, the Appraiser decides • Professional development needs are identified and means to deliver these are integral to the process

  14. Appraisal (changes) • Governing Bodies will have more flexibility to determine appraisal policy for their school • More flexibility about who Appraisers are and time scales for the process • No guidance on the number or type of objectives • Requirement to appoint an external Adviser for the Headteacher appraisal • New Professional Standards are part of the benchmarking for objective setting, to be applied at all career stages (NB no new Headteacher Standards)

  15. Appraisal (changes) • Professional Standards are applied according to the experience and role of the Appraisee • A robust written report on the outcomes of the previous year is produced by the Appraiser and signed with comments by the Appraisee(sharper process) • Recommendations on pay are directly linked to Appraisal • Removal of the three hour time limit for classroom observations – observations to be carried out in a “supportive style”

  16. Capability

Capability (changes) • Policy now linked in one overall Appraisal document • DFE Model policy only applies to teachers • New model policy not statutory, but based on ASAC Code of Disciplinary and Grievance • The basic structure of the old and new policies is the same with one or two key alterations • > There is no informal stage to the new procedure – instead this falls within the Appraisal Policy

Capability (changes) • New structure has a suggested monitoring and review period following the first warning, reduced from 8 -20 weeks to 4 – 10 weeks • “Recycling” of underperforming teachers • Proposed that employers be required to share with a prospective employer if the teacher has been the subject of capability procedures in the last two years • Consultation
