Exploring and responding to the Renewed Education Inspection Framework

This series of online, interactive sessions will provide leaders with the opportunity to come together to collectively consider each of the graded areas within the Renewed Education Inspection Framework, which comes into use in November 2025, helping them to self-evaluate their school and plan strategically for further improvement.

• Self-evaluating Achievement and Safeguarding (Mon 3rd Nov)
• Self-evaluating Inclusion (Mon 10th Nov)
• Self-evaluating Curriculum and Teaching (Mon 17th Nov)
• Self- evaluating Attendance and Behaviour (Mon 24th Nov)
• Self-evaluating Early Years (Thurs 27th Nov)
• Self-evaluating Personal Development and Well-being (Mon 1st Dec)
• Self-evaluating Leadership and Governance (Mon 8th Dec)

Within the training, leaders will:

• develop an understanding of the criteria within each graded area
• consider how evaluative information and evidence might be presented in their self-evaluation document
• consider how they might use this information to strategically plan for improvement
• discuss, share and consider their own unique approaches with colleagues
