Common use of Deferred Progression Clause in Contracts

Deferred Progression. (i) Where a teacher/▇▇▇▇▇▇ has not met the appropriate professional standards throughout the assessment period the employer may defer salary progression. (ii) Where progression has been deferred, the employer shall determine a timeframe (in consultation with the teacher) within which the teacher shall have the opportunity to demonstrate the improved performance required to meet the appropriate standards. (iii) If it is agreed that the teacher/▇▇▇▇▇▇ has demonstrated within this timeframe that they are meeting the appropriate standards, they will progress to the next step from the date of this second assessment. This date will become the teacher's new anniversary date for the purposes of pay progression. (iv) Where a teacher/▇▇▇▇▇▇ is unable to attain the standards within the specified timeframe, the teacher/kaiako will be required to undergo competency procedures as set out in Part 30. (v) In the case where progression through the pay scale will financially jeopardise the future viability of East Taieri Pre-School and its ability to remain operating, the committee will consult with NZEI Te Riu Roa and seek agreement to freeze progression for that financial year for ALL staff. By approaching NZEI Te Riu Roa to investigate this option, the committee agree to fully disclose the financials and make them available to examine.
