Hi Jo
At the University of Edinburgh, a career weighted towards teaching is
recognized well through the creation of well-structured pathways for
promotion to professorship which recognize that some posts are more
heavily weighted towards teaching and for example, that in such cases,
taking on a readership would not make best sense. You may find our
grade profiles at
http://www.docs.csg.ed.ac.uk/HumanResources/Grade-Profiles.pdf of
interest. Also, notice the section 'Exemplars of Excellence in Student
Education' at
http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/human-resources/pay-reward/promotions-grading/academic-staff/procedures-criteria
.
Best wishes
Margaret

In line with many other institutions, we give protected time to those academics who are research-active but there is nothing commensurate for those who have demonstrated expertise and excellence in teaching and the support of learning. I wondered if anyone worked for an insitution that did this? I'd be very grateful for any information and am very happy to compile and distribute any guidance I receive.
