This book provides an overview and discussion of the evidence base of effective school inspections; reflecting on issues of validity and reliability of school inspections in relation to school effectiveness research, unintended consequences and emergent roles and responsibilities of Inspectorates of Education. Chapters include findings from systematic literature reviews and primary research while also presenting a range of practical examples from inspections systems from all over the world. The book provides relevant background materials for Inspectorates of Education who aim to improve the effectiveness of their systems and working methods, as well as clear examples for researchers aiming to analyse and understand the effectiveness of these systems. The final chapter reflects on changes in the current education landscape and discusses newer models of school inspections that fit within a more decentralized inspection system.

"During the first half of the 1990s the British government turned inspection into an ambitious instrument of educational policy-making. Initially it encouraged local education authorities to experiment with inspection 'in all its forms'. Growing impatient wih the pace of change, however, a new policy was brought into force afer the 1992 General Election." "Schools were to be inspected on a hitherto unprecedented scale. Every primary and secondary school in England and Wales was to undergo a 'full' inspection once every four years. At the same time a new agency, the Office for Standards in Education (OFSTED), was set up to organize the new programme. Their concern, they declared, was not merely to hold schools to account but to help them to improve. So-called 'failing' schools, in particular, would be identified and put on notice to change." "The research reported here is one of the very first independent attempts to explore the aftermath of inspection and the ways in which schools do (or don't) take up inspectors' challlenges. What kinds of recommendations do schools find relatively easy to implement? Which factors seem to make a difference? Do so-called 'failing' schools require special treatment? In short, has a 'powerful tool' for school improvement been discovered? Or is its leverage on change processes, in practice, more modest?" "The history of school inspections in Britain stretches back over 150 years. Despite this lengthy tradition, its effects have up till now been simply asserted or taken for granted. Inspecting Schools offers a compelling account of the limits and possibilities of inspection as a mechanism for school reform."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The national programme of four-yearly school inspections was introduced in 1993, based on common criteria set out in OFSTED’s Handbook for the Inspection of Schools. Revised guidelines were introduced in February 1996, reflecting the lessons learned, and this book, originally published in 1996 articulates ideas that would have informed these revisions, including short essays by the Secretary of State for Education and Employment and the Education spokesmen of the Labour and Liberal Democrat parties. Registered inspectors, teachers, researchers, parents, school governors, policy analysts and policy makers all offer their experience of the strengths, weaknesses and outcomes of the OFSTED inspection process. The book is a companion to Improvement through Inspection? – Complementary Approaches to School Development by the same Editors, published and now reissued simultaneously.

`This is an important book, not least because OfTED may well have changed English schools more substantially than any previous curriculum development or assessment development programme′ - Mentoring & Tutoring This book looks at the relationship between school inspection and school improvement. The authors show how heads have used inspectors′ reports to put in place real school improvement. They deal with the contexts of inspection and comparisons are made with the Australian experience of school self-review. The book focuses on how schools have developed a culture of self-inspection. The authors consider the system of OfSTED inspections and ask how beneficial inspection has been in encouraging schools to develop and improve. They suggest there is need for a change and that there are alternative approaches to school assessment and improvement, which could be more effective. They argue that the school′s own evaluation processes should play a greater part in the arrangements for inspection. Improving Schools and Inspection will be essential reading for headteachers and other professionals engaged in dealing with inspections.

Ofsted don't allow their inspectors to offer advice to schools. But as a former inspector, Paul Garvey is able to use his experience to help headteachers prepare for inspections in order to help every school gain the grade it feels it deserves. His book is full of invaluable insights, gathered from years of experience in inspecting thousands of different schools. He takes readers step-by-step through what schools need to be doing (and not doing!) in advance to prepare, and then walks readers through the inspection process from both the school's and inspector's point of view. Paul refers regularly to Ofsted's School Inspection Handbook in order to link his advice to the grading criteria. And finally, he guides readers on writing their self-evaluation form. This book is a must have for any senior leadership team with an inspection due.
