Ofsted Inspection Framework

The Department for Education and Ofsted are revising the Ofsted inspection framework to emphasise inclusion, learner progression, and broader measures of school performance beyond narrow attainment metrics. The framework reform aims to reduce incentives for non-inclusive practices and accountability pressures that may disadvantage vulnerable learners. Recent updates include changes to inspection fees for independent schools and early years providers.
