PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL SYSTEM

The Performance Appraisal System is a structured and comprehensive framework designed to evaluate and enhance the effectiveness of all stakeholders in the academic environment — including teachers, non-teaching staff, and students. It serves as a tool for self-reflection, continuous improvement, accountability, and institutional growth.

The appraisal process ensures alignment with the vision, mission, and goals of the institution. It helps identify strengths, address challenges, and provide constructive feedback. Through fair and systematic evaluation, the institution fosters a culture of excellence, transparency, and professionalism.
