Course description

Target Audience – governors from all Primary, Secondary, Special Schools & Academies

This course provides an overview of the latest Ofsted school inspection framework, and

includes coverage of the short inspections introduced for Good schools. The session is suitable

for all governors and staff including those in Academies. Key resources for this session are the

Ofsted Inspection Handbooks effective from September 2016.

The aim is to familiarise delegates with the implications of inspection for your school as a

whole, and specifically for the governing boards as part of the school leadership team.

The course examines the main Ofsted judgment headings and grades, and considers how

an effective school self-evaluation (supported by robust evidence) is essential. The tutor will

outline the inspection process, explore the kind of questions asked by inspectors, discuss useful

sources of evidence, and share a range of practical suggestions to help your governing board

prepare in advance of the inspector’s call.
