How to Use This Template
Set Plan Start Date and Review Date at the outset so the timeframe is never in dispute. Name Teacher Name, Line Manager and Areas for Improvement with the specific practice concerned — 'questioning depth in whole-class teaching', not 'teaching standards'.
Detail Support Provided by School (coaching, observation cycles, training) and break Review Milestones into dated checkpoints with Success Criteria attached to each. Hold a short midpoint conversation at the first milestone rather than waiting for the Review Date, and close the plan formally whether outcomes were met or the timeline extended.
When to Use This Template
Scheduled lesson observation
Share the observation focus and rubric with the teacher beforehand, record evidence against each dimension, and agree on a next observation date.
Annual staff evaluation cycle
Run self-assessment, observation and results sections through the same rubric, then collate scores and goals for the performance review meeting.
Agreeing goals for the next cycle
Close each evaluation by recording two or three specific, measurable goals for the next period and the support the teacher will receive, then revisit them at the following observation.
