The deadline for the governing body of a school to which the Regulations apply to secure that the head teacher’s objectives have been agreed or set is extended from 31st December 2000 to 6th April 2001. The governing body may decide that the head teacher’s first appraisal cycle under the Regulations should be a period of less than one year.
