This is essential for all governors who are members of their school’s head teacher
appraisal panel. We recommend that where possible, one new panel member is
appointed and trained every year.
The Ofsted inspection framework highlights the importance of the annual performance review
process for teachers and head teachers, as a lever for improving the quality of teaching and
pupil achievement in schools.
This session clearly lays out the responsibilities of governing boards for
• Appointing a panel which conducts the head teacher’s annual appraisal – agreeing
performance objectives, monitoring progress during the year, and assessing the head’s
performance against those objectives
• Obtaining advice from an external professional adviser
• Ensuring that the head teacher conducts an effective performance appraisal process for
teaching staff
• Relating staff pay decisions to performance
Delegates will explore examples of performance objectives which are relevant to their school
improvement priorities.
