3 December 2020 Full Ofsted inspections will not return until Easter, but there will be supportive monitoring for some schools

The government has announced that the return of full inspections has now been pushed back until the Summer term.  The key points are

- Full graded inspections will not resume until the Summer term at the earliest

- From January, Ofsted will run 'supportive' monitoring inspections for schools rated as 'inadequate', and some that are 'requires improvement'

- The inspections will focus on issues like curriculum, remote education and pupil attendance, particularly of vulnerable children

- Ofsted will have the power to inspect schools if they have serious concerns including over safeguarding and remote education
