Ofsted
Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education) inspects all state schools in England at least every three years. After the inspection is done, Ofsted publishes a report which is available to the public. OFSTED will make a graded judgement against the following areas
- Overall effectiveness
- Quality of Education
- Behaviour and Attitudes
- Personal Development
- Leadership And Management
When assessing these areas Ofsted inspectors will consider:
- the school’s assessment of its own performance
- performance data
- pupils’ work
- lesson observations
- input from parents
- discussions with pupils and staff
