Download and adapt our model staff capability policy
Our policy has been approved by Forbes Solicitors and was developed in consultation with the school leaders' union, NAHT.
It's based on the DfE's model capability policy and the Acas code of practice on disciplinary and grievance procedures.
Please note: this policy is aimed primarily at maintained schools, academies and trusts, but you can adapt it to suit any school.
