Maintaining Outstanding Safeguarding Provision

Effective and practical strategies to deliver high quality child protection in the new inspection framework

What's happening within Ofsted

The new Ofsted inspection framework is bringing radical changes to the way your safeguarding procedures will be judged. From January 2012 safeguarding will no longer be a limiting judgement but it will fall under both the Leadership & Management and Behaviour & Safety judgements. The new framework comes on the heels of a raft of safeguarding guidance that was updated and released over the summer and at a time when many are experiencing diminishing support from the local authority.
