Last year I gave a presentation at the education show entitled ‘Preparing for Ofsted.’ I sifted through lots of Ofsted reports, founds patterns of ‘behaviours’ and looked for things inspectors seemed to be consistently asking for. I then created a slide show based on my findings.
In February 2013, Ofsted visited my school. As a result I’ve recently updated the slide show and below is the new updated version. I hope it will help you when your visit is due.

Thanks for this, nice ‘straight to the point’ information.
Love it
I do like the slide-show….. and it’s good to see SMSC writ large! I was pleasantly surprised to see my quote still in there SMILE…. (dare I say I’d forgotten it) I’m working with Dan O’Brien of http://www.opeus.com on SMSC and self evaluation generally – we could collaborate perhaps?
Thanks for the comment John. I’m certainly not an ofsted fan but feel a duty to help others who face the bog ‘O’
We’d love to collaborate with you more, what kind of ideas do you have?
