This workshop looks at the skills needed by managers to get the most from these discussions, including how to tackle poor performance and how to further motivate high performers.

It will consist of 2 x half day, interactive, virtual classroom sessions, spaced 1 week apart. The course will use a case study to explore specific issues, particularly around dealing with staff who are struggling to perform well.

Each session will have trainer input, group work discussion and practice.

After day one, delegates will plan actions that they will undertake between day one and day two.

It is essential that you complete the "Maximising Performance" elearning module & pre-course work prior to attending this workshop.

Any specific questions regarding supervision and appraisal can be sent to the trainer up to five days before the course, to help contextualise the sessions. There will be a case study, the first part of which will need to be read before day one.

NOTE: These briefings replace the previously planned Assessment Support Events.

Following the cancellation of all statutory assessment for this year, these briefings aim to explain the implications of the cancellation for schools, and support schools to ensure that assessment this year is as effective as possible under the current circumstances. We will share key recommendations as developed by the South East inter-LA (local authority) group and discuss best practice approaches to this year's assessment and transition processes.

These briefings are aimed mainly at teachers and leaders in key stages 1 and 2. However, secondary colleagues may also find it useful to attend.
