Principal’s Annual Performance Agreement Review 2013-2014
Performance Expectations
The board’s expectations of the principal are documented in its Operations Policy.
The two reviews of compliance with these expectations indicate that the principal continues to meet expectations.
Development Objective
The principal’s personal development goal was to develop and improve knowledge of Te Reo Maori.
There were some timing difficulties with the weekly classes and the PLD offered by the University of Auckland.
Nevertheless there has been an improved knowledge of Te reo Māori.
Professional Standards for Principals
Three staff members were selected to rate the principal’s performance against the Professional Standards for Principals.
Their reviews indicated that the principal has particular strengths professional leadership and community engagement.
Career Allowance Payment
I confirm that the principal has met the requirements for the Experienced Principal’s Career Allowance Payment.
Looking Ahead
It has been acknowledged that an outside appraiser should have been engaged to facilitate the principal’s performance appraisal process, but there was no appraiser available for this period.
Arrangements are currently being made with an independent appraiser to appraise the Principal and Senior Management Team for 2014-2015.
