2023-2024 appraisals – a reminder to add your objectives

As we begin 2024, it provides an opportunity for a mid-year review of appraisal objectives, to ensure they are still relevant and achievable and to check progress.  

We recommend that appraisers and their appraisees meet to: 

  • Review objectives – how SMART are they?  
  • Discuss progress towards achieving the objectives.  
    • Following discussions between the appraiser and appraisee objectives can be adjusted if needed.  
    • Notes can be added into the comments sections within the online appraisal form. These notes can be helpful in preparing for the appraisal conversation later in the year. Remember to press ‘save changes’ once added. 
  • Plan any development to support achievement of the objectives. 

The 2023-24 appraisal conversation window opens on 1 June 2024.
