No Ofsted inspections in the week commencing 8 March as schools and colleges focus on reopening to all pupils

Nine in 10 against Ofsted resuming full school inspections in summer term and a third say it should ‘never’ return

The watchdog says increasing workload during the pandemic is an ongoing challenge for schools

A new approach to the Teaching Excellence and Student Outcomes Framework is proposed in independent review

Competition in post-16 education negatively affects choice, quality and delivery of specialist courses, says the Association of Colleges

Not returning to full inspections until the summer term was a ‘common-sense decision’, college leaders said

Ofsted will carry out ‘some activity’ in January, but the deputy director for FE and skills does not expect this to include graded inspections

As of 31 July 2020, 35 colleges and other institutions were subject to FE commissioner intervention – including 19 colleges that remained in intervention from the 2018-19 reporting year
