It is a summary of changes and growth in ministry since your last Review.

You may adjust its contents in the meeting and then agree the final version after discussion with your Reviewer.

Please complete this form in a way which is helpful to you and moves you on. Use cut and paste for sections which have already appeared in your background information.

description of the parish or area of ministry and of key relationships including any major changes since last Review e.g. change of churchwardens, line manager, Incumbent etc., local social change, such as a new housing estate, enlargement of prison. If you are an SSM, with a workplace ministry, please also write a little about where you work.

2. How successful have I been in reaching the objectives I set at my last

review? Which objectivesare still a work in progress?

3. What changes have there been in my work and in my journey of faith over the two years? What have been the three most rewarding aspects of my ministry over this period? What have been the two least rewarding?

4. Summary of input from lay people and colleagues and my response to that.

This section will be left blank until the review.

5. What training have I undertaken in the last 2 years, other than that already listed in the fulfilment of objectives?

6. What objectives am I setting for the next few years?

There should normally be 6 objectives, 3 relating to your personal professional development and 3 to your ministry.

7. Are there specific areas in which I will need support or training in order to work towards these objectives? You may wish to share some of these objectives with your Spiritual Director, colleagues or churchwardens.

1. Areas of particular experience, skill or gifting that could be shared more widely.
