Improving Practice

First Edition

Managing the performance of staff has become a key concern in education. It is a controversial area with a number of approaches based on very different assumptions. This book provides an overview of some of the key issues in developing professional performance and examines critically some of the key strategies that can be used to enhance professional performance.

  • The first section of the book sets out the development of performance management.
  • The second section deals with theoretical issues.
  • The third section adopts a case study approach mapping out and critiquing a range of strategies that can be used to improve performance.
  • Current issues such as work based learning, performance related pay, the assessment of performance and the use of standards are examined.
