Hi Everyone,

We are currently reviewing our Academic Progression Policy and we are keen to thread equality and diversity throughout the policy. We are particularly looking at our procedures for promotion to Senior Lecturer/Reader/Chair. As promotion at Durham depends heavily on the quality and quantity of an individual’s research, we are looking at the effect that things like language barriers, maternity leave and disability have on employees’ chances of promotion.

Has anyone done this already? Would anyone be willing to share their policy with me?

My off-line email address in below.

Many thanks,

Kelly Moss
