360-Degree Feedback Form and Guidance

About this document

What it’s for

A complete 360-degree feedback toolkit: guidance for running a fair process, a rater nomination form, an invitation to raters, the feedback questionnaire (also used for the self-assessment), a summary report template and a development action plan.

When to use it

  • To support development, particularly for managers and senior staff
  • Before an annual review, as one source of evidence
  • Not as the sole basis for pay, promotion, capability or disciplinary decisions

What’s inside

The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.

  • Part A – Guidance for running 360-degree feedback
  • What it is
  • Principles
  • Choosing raters
  • Fairness and bias
  • Data protection and confidentiality
  • Comments that need action
  • Rating scale
  • Open questions
  • Part F – Development action plan

How to complete it

  • Agree the purpose and raters with the participant (Parts A and B)
  • Send Part C and the questionnaire (Part D) to raters
  • Collate responses into the summary (Part E)
  • Discuss the results and agree actions (Part F)

Key points to check

  • Need at least three raters per group to keep anonymity
  • Tell raters how their data will be used
  • Screen comments for anything that needs separate action

Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
