KSF reviews

Hi All

I'm new here, is anyone familiar with the KSF reviews and how to present them. It's seems this new means of annual review has left everyone (even managers) clueless. I cant find any information on the format for producing evidence and my colleagues are also in the same situation. Whilst I appreciate here may be no hard and fast rules to presentation. I would obviously like to avoid writting reams if I haven't got the right end of the stick!:Crash:

Hiya

There are several pieces of info in the KSF handbook (at the back) and some of the forms are compulsory.

The handbook is here http://www.dh.gov.uk/PublicationsAndStatistics/Publications/PublicationsPolicyAndGuidance/PublicationsPolicyAndGuidanceArticle/fs/en?CONTENT_ID=4090843&chk=dyrb/a

You might also like to visit http://www.e-ksfnow.org/ which is a really useful site and also http://www.wise.nhs.uk/cmsWISE/Workforce+Themes/Retaining_and_Developing_Staff/PayandReward/ImplementingAgendaforChange/KSF

Hope these help!

Does your trust not provide protocols?

At our Trust there were training sessions set up for KSF reviewers and reviewees so that everybody would know what to expect from both party. I had my review recently, by two managers, they basically went through my job outline and core/specfic competences, and looked at the all my evidences to see that i was working at the level required for my band (7).

Mind you although people says that this is not a paper chase exercise, from experince i can tell that it was as you have to gather all the evidances.

Good luck
