4 Pay Policy School Governors and Headteachers will be aware that the Department for Education has introduced some far reaching changes to the payment and performance assessment of teachers including members of the SLT. A number of different model Pay Policies have been proposed by the Department for Education, Professional Associations, a variety of private consultants and some Local Authorities. This all places a particular responsibility on Governors and Headteachers to devise a policy which will be applied in their own school for use no later than the end of the Autumn Term 2013.This will involve consultation with professional associations and trade unions and place additional responsibilities on decision makers within schools who will in some circumstances possibly have their decisions subject to appeal. Advice on the preparation and implementation of the new policy is available from the Team which includes: Producing a Pay Policy Recruitment and Selection Role of the Pay Policy Committee Annual Reviews and Timetables Assessment and Performance Pay and Conditions for Support Staff Roles and Responsibilities of Governors and Headteachers Performance Management for Teachers and Support Staff An essential precursor of performance management is effective day to day management of staff. This includes proper use of the probationary period, where applicable, and regular supervisory meetings between manager and managed either individually and/or in teams. This will include appropriate guidance and support plus training. In hopefully a minority of cases and notwithstanding the best efforts of a manager the work performance of an employee may fall below acceptable standards. These may be national standards in the case of teachers and those locally agreed for Support Staff. Advice on the implementation and continuation of the performance management process is available from the team. Page 3
5 Students Entering Employment The HR Team offer an innovative seminar for students about to leave School either to go to university or seek employment for the first time. This will cover the following topics: Personal preparation Writing a CV and completing an application form Being interviewed This will be a highly participative programme over three separate sessions and will include feedback to all students and interviews. Discipline, Dismissal and Employment Tribunals Advice and guidance on all aspects of the disciplinary process including how to deal with issues informally, right through to dismissal and governor appeals is on offer. Training is provided at your school or at the Ealing Education Centre in all aspects of dealing with disciplinary issues for your leadership team and other managers. Disciplinary issues can be complex and time consuming and sometimes end up before Employment Tribunals. A number of important changes came into effect from 29th July 2013 covering new limits on awards, claimants fees, initial sifting of claims, pre settlement discussions and Compromise Agreements now called Settlement Agreements. The aim of our team is to avoid the need for issues appearing before Employment Tribunals, however this cannot always be avoided. HR support is provided both at the preliminary stage before the hearing and at the actual hearing if this becomes necessary. Leadership Recruitment Support on all aspects of the Leadership Recruitment process. Advice on the operation of safer recruitment practice throughout the process Preparation of job descriptions Support with identifying assessment activities Support at shortlisting and interviews Salary and Individual School Range (ISR) guidance. Personnel Health Checks Annual appraisal with your designated HR Consultant of all your HR needs, which reviews the fitness of HR and people management in your school and identifies your needs and areas for action. Page 4
6 Legal Insurance Scheme The Legal Insurance Scheme covers some of the cost of professional advice and representation by solicitors and barristers. This includes legal advice and representation in relation to Employment Tribunals, Settlement Agreements (formerly Compromise Agreements), sex discrimination, unfair dismissal and disability discrimination cases. Absence Management Staff absence is both a financial and operating cost to schools. Therefore the effective management of all staff absence should be a key management activity. This includes the monitoring and review of all absences, return to work interviews and the formal review of individual absences through the procedure which can ultimately lead to dismissal. The development and operation of the procedure together with training for managers is provided. The effective use of these procedures can save thousands of pounds. Ealing also offers an innovative insurance scheme to guard against the costs of long term sick absence. Maternity and Long Term Sickness Insurance A maternity insurance scheme is available to be purchased to cover some of the employment costs of maternity absence. A parallel policy is available to cover some of the costs of long term sickness absence. Interpretation of the School Teachers Pay and Conditions Document (STP&CD) The statutory based STP&CD is a complex document which underpins all aspects of the employment of teachers and members of the leadership team. The HR Team offers advice and guidance on all aspects of the interpretation of these fundamental conditions of service. Terms and Conditions of Service for Support Staff A full advisory and support service in respect of all aspects of the employment of support staff is offered, covering local and national conditions of service. Page 5
7 Policies and procedures The HR Team continually reviews all current personnel procedures and adapts them for the particular circumstances of schools in the light of statutory changes and modern HR practice. Amongst those which have been reviewed recently are procedures covering: Whistleblowing Leadership Recruitment including Safer Recruitment Flexible Working Management of Absence Use of Fixed Term Contracts Discipline Grievance Procedure Managing Reorganisations Dealing with unsatisfactory performance. Equality Analysis Assessment Reorganisations The one certainty in the educational working environment is change. Most schools have or are facing changes to their staffing structures involving job revisions and the deletions of posts, which can result in redundancies. These changes will involve consultations with the relevant professional associations, trade unions and staff. The planning and management of these changes are amongst the most important tasks undertaken by the leadership team and governors. The Schools HR Team is able to offer support at all stages of the process. Job Evaluation (JE) The Team will help in the preparation of job descriptions and undertake the subsequent evaluation. Our team is trained in the Local Government GLPC JE Scheme and Hay Job Evaluation Scheme. Termly HR Newsletter and Briefings The Schools HR Team publishes a termly newsletter briefing schools on all aspects of current HR trends in an easily digestible format, and holds face-to-face briefings on topical HR issues at the Ealing Education Centre.
