The main principle behind the 2017 strategy is that Ofsted exists to be ‘a force for improvement through intelligent, responsible and focused inspection and regulation’.
Our work should be:
- intelligent – our work will be evidence-led, with valid and reliable evaluation tools and frameworks
- responsible – we will try to reduce inspection burdens and make our expectations and findings clear
- focused – we will target our time and resources where they can lead directly to improvement
