Inspections into 2025 – London

Strengthening Your School’s Self-Evaluation

Refine your existing processes to ensure a smooth transition.

With significant changes to OFSTED inspections set for November 2025, schools must ensure they are fully prepared while continuing to work within the current framework.

Rather than overhauling everything, schools that focus on strengthening their existing self-evaluation processes will be in the strongest position to transition smoothly. By embedding best practices now, you can confidently demonstrate impact, maintain high standards, and adapt to the upcoming changes without disruption.

This course is designed to help you optimise your current self-evaluation strategies while keeping a close focus on the latest OFSTED consultation updates.

OFSTED’s current inspection framework already provides a clear structure for self-evaluation. Schools that refine their existing processes, evidence-gathering, and stakeholder engagement will find adapting to the 2025 changes much easier.
