Ofsted requirements change year-on-year to adapt to the issues affecting UK schools. For example, the inclusion of academies in the guidelines only began in 2012, after concerns were raised about the inequity in quality of UK schools, and the 2015 handbook specifically details safeguarding criteria following the “Trojan Horse” scandal of 2014.
These updates are essential to ensuring that children are receiving the best and safest possible learning environment, but these guidelines are only part of a school’s improvement analysis.
Through reviewing a wide array of research, we have established a set of fundamental characteristics which will promote consistent effectiveness in schools, no matter the circumstances.
