The new OFSTED Curriculum documentation - from September 2019
Download it as a PDF from this link.
At secondary school, it will look at a sample of four to six subjects.
As part of its deep dive, Ofsted will also carry out an “evaluation of curriculum leaders' long- and medium-term thinking and planning including their rationale for content choices".
Under its new inspection framework, Ofsted is also extending the length of inspections at "good" schools to two days – apart from in schools with fewer than 150 pupils, where inspections will remain one day long.
Ofsted has put curriculum at the centre of its inspection plans with its plan to replace teaching and learning and pupil outcomes as separate inspection judgements with a new quality of education grade.
It will assess the intent, implementation and impact of a school’s curriculum alongside teaching and learning and pupils’ results to give each school a quality of education inspection grade.
It is giving schools until the summer of 2020 to develop their thinking on curriculum and has indicated that this period could be extended.
