One day review

Price: £718 per day per adviser

Overview

It’s all too easy for things to get out of hand when you get ‘the call’ and Ofsted comes knocking at your door. But there’s no need to panic – our team of highly experienced leadership and management advisers can help you put things into perspective.

We provide a tailored one day review of school leadership, management and teaching that will enable you to meet the requirements of the new Ofsted Education Inspection Framework before it happens and make sure that your school’s ‘journey to outstanding’ remains on track.

Our flexible service can help you present a compelling overall evaluation of your school’s achievements based on a comprehensive understanding of Ofsted requirements. Alternatively, we can focus on an issue raised in an inspection or aspects identified through your own self-evaluation in order to focus attention on best practice and strategies for improvement. Either way we can get you and your school Ofsted ready and relieve some of the stress that’s associated with an Ofsted inspection.

The review can take the form of an adviser led review or a supported review where the advisers can lead of team of school staff to review aspects of the quality of education. The review can encompass deep dives into priority areas.

What's included?

• lesson visits, meetings with pupils and staff, and scrutiny of planning and books
• meetings with senior leaders, subject leaders, classroom staff
• review of key documentation
• guidance on how to improve curriculum implementation
• evaluation of the overall quality of education, leadership and management and behaviour, safety and wellbeing of pupils
• written report to follow the review
