SIP

  • Use of SIPs for Performance Management
    27 September 2011 There is currently some confusion as to the role of the School Improvement Partner (SIP) in relation to Head Teacher performance management (PM). Regulations put in place under the previous government specify that the governing body must take advice from an external adviser when undertaking performance management of the head teacher. All local authorities were required to put in place SIPs and, when these were appointed, the governing body had to use the SIP as the external adviser.

    30 September 2010 Figures shows that a third of head teacher posts in the Primary sector were reported unfilled after an advertisement in 2009/10 compared with 26% in 2008/9. The absence of a permanent, substantive head interrupts a school's development. High re-advertisement rates cause significant additional expenditure for schools as well as extra uncertainty for staff, pupils and parents and difficulties for succession planning.
