Preparing for Ofsted Inspection

For colleges, the Common Inspection Framework now includes 'Equality and Diversity' as both a limiting and contributory grade.

In simple terms, the grade awarded at inspection for Equality and Diversity contributes to the overall grade awarded for Leadership and Management, but now poor performance in the area of Equality and Diversity also limits the maximum grade that can be awarded for the all important area of Overall Effectiveness

Who is this Course aimed at?

This course will be of interest to colleges, schools and work-based learning organisations that are inspected by Ofsted

Within your role you will, at times, be required to challenge others' behaviour because you think it is potentially discriminatory; there are some attitudes, language and behaviours that are unacceptable: e.g. racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, disablist, ageist.
