Details

Ahead of the launch of the education inspection framework (EIF) in September 2019, we will not be making changes to the Non-association independent school inspection handbook or the Handbook for additional inspections of independent schools.

This note informs schools and inspectors of changes coming into effect before the EIF.

Further information on the launch of the EIF and how we will carry out inspections from September 2019 is in Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector’s commentary.
