Bulletin 18 March 2024.
There is a slight delay to the finalisation of allocations for Primary Offer Day on 16 April 2024. The original completion date for schools to see their final offers was 22 March 2024. The delay is due to some outstanding late notifications from neighbouring authorities. Final allocations will follow shortly, and a separate notice will confirm this.
Updated contract of employment advice has now been agreed and is available for subscribers to the Schools HR Advisory Service to access. A new support staff appraisal policy is also available to subscribers of the HR Advisory Service.
The School Teachers Pay and Conditions document 2023 has been updated. Schools should note the revision to Annex 5 of the document and review the list of administrative tasks that teachers should not ordinarily be expected to carry out. Please see the Services for Schools website for more details.
