Various myths surround Ofsted inspections and what the inspectors want to see. As a result, Ofsted has recently provided some clarification due to the concern that these myths are resulting in unnecessary workloads in schools.
For example:
Whilst Ofsted appears to be trying to reduce unnecessary workloads, in practice, schools may still feel that this guidance does not actually reduce their workload because they still need to carry out lesson planning, to monitor teaching and learning and to consider the Teachers’ Standards.
The point, however, is that it is up to schools to determine their practices and for leadership teams to justify these on their own merits, ensuring that what schools do are of use, rather than schools carrying out work purely for the purpose of the next Ofsted inspection.
