Ofsted reports on the quality of the inspection work carried out by the inspectorates of British schools overseas.
Documents
Details
British schools overseas may choose to be inspected against the British schools overseas standards by one of the approved overseas inspectorates. The Department for Education (DfE) commissions Ofsted to monitor and report on the quality of these inspections.
As in academic years 2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22, the DfE did not commission Ofsted to monitor any British schools overseas inspections in 2022/23. Therefore, we will not publish the report letter for 2022/23.
