Performance and development - strategic drivers
• Independent Commission of Audit Final Report April 2013 A Plan – Better Services for Queenslanders
• Great Teachers = Great Results Action 1
• Code of Conduct for the QPS
• DETE Strategic Plan 2014-2018
• State Schools Strategy 2014-2018
• Cascading nature of planning from Government initiatives to individual developing performance plans ensures a clear line of sight between our work and strategic priorities.
• This is achieved through cascading performance objectives from the director-general’s performance agreement deputy directors-general senior executives directors/principals all public servants through:

The CLF guides the identification of strengths and areas for development
22
Identifying strengths and areas for development
Go to the QPS Capability and Leadership Framework (CLF) site and choose either or both of the following approaches:
Approach 1. Tools and templates – Self-assessment proformas for your CLF level
Approach 2. Individual CLF Profile for your level.
• In addition to these approaches you need to also reflect on your own work performance, feedback you have received, and the work responsibilities you have for the next agreement (usually 12 months).
Approach 1: Using the self-assessment proforma for your CLF level
• Go to the CLF Tools and templates and choose the self-assessment proforma for your level
• Also refer to the detail for each of the 5 capabilities in the individual profile for your level
• Complete the Capabilities required for role, and Current level of capability columns
• Review and select major strengths and areas for development to discuss with your supervisor/team leader at your performance and development conversation
• Areas for development will also align
with the work for your school/unit/team.

Approach 2: Individual CLF Profile for your level
• Examine all 6 pages of the CLF Profile for your level
• Using the summary page of your profile, highlight key areas (either components e.g. 2.2, 3.1,3.4 or specific parts of the description which you believe are strengths for you). Also consider some work examples for these.
• Using another coloured highlighter, identify components or specific parts of the description which you believe are potential areas for development which will also align with your work over the next year.
• You and your team leader/supervisor will now discuss these views and come to an agreement on your key strengths and areas for development.
