Overview
The first half-term of the new academic year, up until November, is traditionally a busy time in schools and colleges as staff are completing the appraisal cycle for the last academic year and starting their new appraisal cycle.
The leadership team and the Administrator of the iP system, have a number of decisions to make regarding setting up iP including how to organise the opening and closing of review periods and which default dates to display in the system etc. Often many schools and colleges choose that the previous year's reviews are not closed until the end of September or October so external exam results can be taken into account in the overall judgement of the appraisal cycle.
This document will take you through the steps, in order, involved in successfully closing a review cycle and starting a new one.
