30th January 2003 - ScHARR (School of Health and Related Research) have been commissioned by Dr Philip Leech, Principal Medical Officer at the Department of Health, to undertake a 3-month research project on appraisal for non-principals.

ScHARR have been asked to consider the following questions:

• Evidence for appraisal should be accurate, relevant, and up-to-date.  What evidence therefore could or should be used to support GP non-principals’ appraisal?
• What is the minimum set of evidence that could reasonably support GP non-principals’ appraisal?
• What examples are there of best practice in collecting relevant evidence to support appraisal and continuing professional development amongst GP non-principals?

As part of this research, officers from the NASGP held a two hour discussion with Dr David Martin and Mr Paul Harrison to discuss these issues surrounding implementing appraisal for non-principals.

ScHARR will make a report to Dr Philip Leech next week, and meanwhile we will be forwarding some examples of the NASGP's work in CPD such as our Striving For Quality Personal Learning Portfolio and Standardised Practice Induction Pack.
