Ofsted will carry out inspections of a sample of RAAs, looking at several different themes on these (known as ‘thematic inspections’). The inspections will take place between October and December 2023. This guidance sets out the arrangements for them, including the principles of inspection and the expectations of RAAs and Ofsted. Learning from them will inform plans for future adoption inspection arrangements.
