Ofsted
The College is subject to an OFSTED inspection on a regular basis according to the current regulations as laid down by the Department for Education.
Depending on the type of inspection the school is given less than 24 hours’ notice of an impending inspection. Inspectors spend two days in school conducting the following:
- Observations of lessons and marking of students work
- Observations of other aspects of school life including break times
- Meetings with the Principal and senior team to discuss strategy and results
- Meetings with student representatives
- Meetings with the Governing body and MET representatives
- Issuing of a parent questionnaire and consultation of the Parent view website about the College
- A review of the schools safeguarding and child protection procedures
At the end of the inspection a report is issued that summarises all of the inspection findings and makes recommendations for improvements. There may also be further follow up visits recommended to check on progress.
The report is made available for parents and can be seen here.
