ABSTRACT
Eric had been a good teacher in the past, but was ‘burnt out’. The LEA was able to solve the problem by funding early retirement on efficiency grounds.
Background
Eric was in his fifties and had over thirty years’ experience with the LEA. He had been an excellent teacher in the past, but was now struggling with his role as Head of Science as well as his teaching role. The Head felt that using capability procedure would be very wrong in this case. Monitoring in the school was carried out through line management and observation.
