Ofsted’s Big Listen is underway and provides an opportunity for parents, children and professionals to share their views about how it is currently working and inform its future direction. Ofsted inspections have come under scrutiny over the last year and this consultation is designed to ensure feedback is gathered, listened to, and improvements made. Running until 31 May, I’d encourage people to have their say about Ofsted’s work across education and social care. There are two online consultations, including one specifically aimed at children, and surveys and focus groups. To find out more go to Ofsted Big Listen - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
