Write a one-page staffing request a superintendent or school board can read in two minutes.
Five sections: the need, the staff you have, what happens without the position, the ask, and how you will know it worked.
From PULSE for Education. Bring in a result from the workload or vacancy calculator, or type your own figures.
Staffing request
The need
Add the number of students and the weekly minutes their IEPs require.
The current staff
Add the staff serving these students now, or measure one provider’s week with the workload calculator.
What happens without it
Add the minutes and the contracted cost at risk with the vacancy cost calculator.
The ask
Add the position, the full-time equivalent and the cost.
How we will know it worked
Add what you will check, and when: for example, every student receives their IEP minutes by the end of the first quarter.
Made with the free Staffing Request Builder from PULSE for Education, pulseforeducation.com/tools/staffing-request.
