Programme description
For those governing, Ofsted inspections can be an intimidating aspect of the role. This module aims to alleviate any concerns you may have ahead of an inspection by developing your understanding of the inspection framework, how Ofsted inspects schools and the role governing boards have in the process. It will also explore how you can best support your school before, during and after inspection.
Key changes have been made to Ofsted inspections following the 2025 reform. This module will equip you with the latest knowledge so that you are fully up to date with inspection practice and expectations from November 2025.
