Ofsted Leaflet: Inspections of Maintained Schools and Academies

07/06/18

Ofsted has published a new leaflet on ‘Inspections of Maintained Schools and Academies’.

Under the framework, for section 5 inspections, inspectors will make the following judgements about schools:

• overall effectiveness
• effectiveness of leadership and management
• quality of teaching, learning and assessment
• personal development, behaviour and welfare
• outcomes for pupils

Where the school offers early years provision and sixth form provision, judgements will also be made on these areas.

In short inspections, inspectors will determine whether the school continues to provide a good standard of education and whether safeguarding is effective.
