Cabinet Office: Performance Appraisal
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many and what proportion of staff in each grade were rated in the top performance category in the last year.
Answered by Anna Turley
All CO staff members (in scope) are allocated a performance marking at both the mid (Oct) and end of year (April) points of the performance year as part of their performance reviews.
The below table sets out what proportion of staff in each grade were awarded an Exceeding marking for the 24/25 end of year process.
Grade | No of Employees at grade | Exceeding |
SCS3 | 14 | <5 |
SCS2 | 87 | 13 |
SCS1 | 294 | 65 |
G6 | 772 | 169 |
G7 | 1887 | 309 |
SEO | 1163 | 208 |
HEO | 1325 | 161 |
EO | 758 | 92 |
AO | 387 | 42 |
This data covers all performance markings which have been uploaded onto our central system (SOP).
The data will not include all agencies as many have their own dedicated systems to record this information and are not subject to the CO performance processes.
