Recommendation 16
16
Paragraph: 60
Ensure inspectors' expertise matches phases/subjects, target recruitment gaps, and mandate lead inspector expertise.
Conclusion
Ofsted must ensure that they are matching inspectors’ expertise with the appropriate phase and subject as much as possible, and ensure that their recruitment processes are targeting particular gaps in expertise. At a minimum, they must ensure that the lead inspector always has expertise in the relevant type of school and, in larger teams, that a majority of members of the team have the relevant expertise.
