A cross-College working group has undertaken a review of both the Research and Teaching job families in several phases. For the Teaching job family this has so far resulted in the introduction of a new grade at level 7 (currently titled “Professor of Teaching”), new role profiles, a revised pay structure, the introduction of ten professional development days and the introduction of an annual promotions process that aligns with that for the Academic job family.</p> <p>This is the formal guidance governing the new annual Teaching promotions process. Further practical guidance, covering completion of the form and preparation for interview, can be found in the slides and recording of a briefing for Teaching staff on the <strong>Teaching Promotions webpage.</strong></p> <p>This procedure is for promotion to the Teaching grades of the Learning & Teaching job family listed below. The Role Profiles can be found in Appendix 1-3.</p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td width="353"> <p><strong>Title</strong></p> </td> <td width="109"> <p><strong>Criteria for Promotion</strong></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="353"> <p>Teaching Fellow (Level 3b)</p> </td> <td width="109"> <p>Appendix 1</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="353"> <p>Senior Teaching Fellow (Level 4)</p> </td> <td width="109"> <p>Appendix 2</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="353"> <p>Principal Teaching Fellow (Level 5)</p> </td> <td width="109"> <p>Appendix 2</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="353"> <p>Principal Lecturer (Level 6)</p> </td> <td width="109"> <p>Appendix 3</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="353"> <p>Professor of Teaching in x (Level 7)</p> </td> <td width="109"> <p>Appendix 3</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>The diagram below represents the career progression opportunities through the various pathways within the Learning & Teaching job family as well as the educational research pathway in the Academic job family. </p> <ul> <li>Progression for all staff in the Learning and Teaching job family is through promotion on individual merit and on the basis of achievement. </li> <li>Promotion for Learning Technologists remains through the termly promotions process.</li> <li>Promotion within the Teaching family for Teaching Staff is through the annual promotions process. </li> <li>Promotion within or into Academic family – to Reader or Associate Professor in Education, or Professor in Education – is through the Academic Promotions process. </li> <li>Any job family transfers, whether or not they involve a promotion, are managed through the promotions process for the destination job family as indicated, to ensure that all staff meet the expectations of the role.</li> <li>The Business School does not support movement from the Academic job family to the Learning and Teaching job family.</li> </ul> <p><img class="full " alt="" src="/media/imperial-college/administration-and-support-services/hr/public/reviewspromotion/Diagram-934x526.png" /></p> <h4><span>Important Employment Considerations</span></h4> <h5>1.        <span>Probation and Disciplinary Issues</span></h5> <p><span>Applications for promotion cannot be considered in isolation from matters connected with an employee’s probation or general employment. If a member of staff is at the informal, or any other stage of the university’s Performance Improvement Policy and Procedure, the application will be put on hold until the matter has been resolved, or any warning issued is spent, to the satisfaction of the Deputy Director of Human Resources (Operations). Every effort will then be made to deal with the application as quickly as is practicable. The above also applies to those whose probation has been extended, or where an individual's employment has not been confirmed for performance/disciplinary-related reasons.</span></p> <p><span>Staff who are on probation may be considered for promotion, but only where there are no current disciplinary/capability issues.
