Feedback about Ofsted

The Government's Education Select Committee in England recently announced an inquiry into the role and performance of Ofsted.  

 

NCMA will be responding to this and wants to hear from you about any comments or feedback you may have. The written submissions can address the following points:

  • What the purposes of inspection should be.
  • The impact of the inspection process on school improvement.
  • The performance of Ofsted in carrying out its work.
  • The consistency and quality of inspection teams in the Ofsted inspection process.
  • The weight given to different factors within the inspection process.
  • Whether inspection of all organisations, settings and services to support children's learning and welfare is best conducted by a single inspectorate.
  • The role of Ofsted in providing an accountability mechanism for schools operating with greater autonomy.
