Recommendation 7

7 Paragraph: 28

Support Ofsted in making a case for additional Treasury funding for in-depth inspections.

Conclusion
In the longer term, the Department should support Ofsted in making a strong case to the Treasury for additional funding to carry out more in-depth inspections, without compromising on frequency or the principle that all schools are subject to periodic inspection. Funding for Ofsted should not be seen to be in competition with school funding, and any additional funding for the inspectorate must not result in less funding being made available for schools.
