Covers the new 2012 Ofsted inspection framework, this title has been written by school improvement partner and former headteacher Jackie Beere.
The guide aims to be practical from the outset, with chapters dedicated to learning in lessons, preparation for inspection and tips for what to do on the day itself.
The title includes handy checklists for staff, a final preparatory checklist for headteachers, and a checklist for after the inspection has finished.
There is also a very useful overview of the inspection framework, breaking down how inspectors should be judging areas such as achievement, behaviour, leadership and quality of teaching.
The book is easy to read with lots of summary lists of advice and tips.
