Abstract

With tongue in cheek, I have modified key paragraphs in the current school inspection framework to help those monitoring inspections for quality-assurance purposes judge the quality of inspection teams. Reading them reveals the demanding nature of those expectations and raises the question as to how far inspectors can reasonably be expected to meet them – just as the same question can be posed to problems of the original paragraphs when applied to school teachers and leaders. The modified framework might also be used as the basis for self-evaluation by inspection teams or as a feedback form for schools to submit after an inspection.
