Perceptions of the appraisal system for teachers held by heads of departments at selected primary schools in the East London region, Eastern Cape Province

This dissertation of a limited scope focuses on the Heads of Departments’ perceptions of the
Integrated Quality Management System for teachers at selected quintile 5 Primary Schools in
the East London Region of the Eastern Cape Province. It reveals the positive and negative
aspects of the staff appraisal system, its implementation and purpose, as well as views on its
improvement.
By means of a qualitative case study and the Cognitive Evaluation Theory as theoretical
framework, the researcher has determined that the Performance Measurement component of
the appraisal system has a detrimental effect on the intrinsic motivation of teachers and that it
should be separated from the Developmental Appraisal.
Individual interviews with the Heads of Departments revealed the need for revising the
assessment rubric in order for Performance Measurement to be conducted effectively. / Educational Leadership and Management / M. Ed. (Education Management)
