Better inspection for all

This is a consultation on Ofsted’s proposals for a new framework for the inspection of maintained schools, academies, further education and skills providers, non-association independent schools and registered early years settings.

We are seeking the widest possible range of views from those who have an interest in these different types of providers to ensure that the new inspection framework takes proper account of the needs and circumstances of all interested parties.

The consultation documents are available in two formats:

• the Word version of the questionnaire can be filled in by hand or on your computer

You can also download the consultation document in either format and then complete the online questionnaire.
