Alongside this consultation the DFE have published the following materials:
the draft education inspection framework 2019
the draft inspection handbooks for early years, schools, non-association independent schools and further education and skills
a commentary setting out the research that has informed the development of the criteria in the framework
Feedback will help refine and improve our proposed approach. All responses will be considered carefully before finalising and publishing the framework in summer 2019.
