Staff Development

What does the appraisal process involve and are there any appraisal forms?

The Scheme revolves around an on-going process of review, support and development with a formal, annual meeting between the appraisee and appraiser. This allows space and time to 'take stock' of progress during the past year, and then to plan ahead for the next, which is articulated through a yearly Appraisal Agreement.
