Performance appraisals can easily become something everyone knows they have to do, but few people genuinely value.

For leaders, there is the pressure of getting the process right. For educators and teachers, there can be uncertainty about what is being assessed, what will be discussed and what happens afterwards.

But a well designed appraisal process can do much more than tick a box.

This practical webinar explores how to create performance appraisals that support honest conversations, professional growth and meaningful goal setting, while avoiding the common traps that can undermine trust and engagement.

Together, we will explore how to:

• Clarify the purpose of appraisal and what a meaningful process should achieve

• Create an appraisal approach that supports growth, accountability and professional dialogue

• Develop goals that provide genuine direction beyond the appraisal conversation

• Recognise common pitfalls that can turn appraisal into a compliance exercise

Because performance appraisals should not be something people simply get through. Done well, it helps people understand where they are, where they want to grow and how to get there.
