Ofsted’s corporate strategy, published in September 2017, sets out a programme of work to inform planned changes to the education inspection framework from September 2019. Guidance to school inspectors is the responsibility of Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector, Amanda Spielman.

The department has not received any representations on this matter.
