Inspecting the
Inspectorate: Ofsted under scrutiny
- Anastasia de Waal (ed.), 2008
This collection of essays offer a range of views on Ofsted from those of a practising
school inspector, to the head teacher of a primary school deemed by Ofsted to be
'outstanding', to a parent who led an action group to protest against the Ofsted
judgement their child's school received. It sets out the weaknesses in the current school
inspection regime and the changes urgently required if Ofsted is to contribute to raising
educational standards.

political goals that may or may not relate to traditional academic disciplines.
