Education Inspection: the future

Ofsted recently held a launch event for a common inspection framework which has been remodelled for further education and skills, schools and early years. The slides presented at the event are all available here.

From September, Ofsted will inspect good schools and further education and skills providers once every three years under a new short inspection model. Starting from a premise that the school or provider is still good, inspectors look to ensure that those standards are being maintained as well as checking that leaders have identified key areas of concern and that they have the capacity to address them.
