Building upon the latest school inspection handbook, including feedback from pilot inspections, the course has been designed to ensure that participants understand the key changes to the new framework, with a particular focus on deep dives.

“Detailed and in-depth discussion about the deep dive process which built my confidence.” Claire Taylor, Assistant Head, Bowling Park

The day will include:

• Preparing for the 90 minutes phone call – have you got all the necessary information ready for this?
• How senior leaders can influence and manage the process for the deep dive element of the inspection.
• Ensuring and assuring a quality curriculum for each subject. Are your curriculum leaders ready to work alongside inspectors on the deep dive?
• What to expect from visits to lessons, book scrutiny and pupil discussion.
• What teachers will be expected to demonstrate in terms of the content and sequencing of learning within their subject.
