The Annual Report of Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Education, Children's Services and Skills 2007/08

By: Great Britain: Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills

With the establishment, on 1 April 2007, of the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills, Ofsted's responsibilities for inspecting children's services changed substantially, with Ofsted now regulating and inspecting childcare, children's social care and provision for learners of all ages. This report covers the first full year of reporting on the organisation's new remit. The first section presents an evaluation of the quality and standards in care, early education, schools, colleges, adult learning and skills, and children's services. It is based on evidence from more than 45,000 inspections and regulatory visits in 2007-08. The second section draws on Ofsted's thematic inspections and surveys in the different areas of its remit. This section evaluates the effectiveness with which providers seek to address three important matters: improving the life chances of the least advantaged members of society through excellence in provision; safeguarding children and young people from neglect, abuse and other forms of harm; and enabling learners to acquire the skills they need to succeed in their working lives. The Chief Inspector is encouraged by the recognition that much is going well for so many children, young people and adult learners, but frustrated that there is still too much that is patently inadequate and too many settings and institutions where the rate of improvement is unacceptably slow.

By: Great Britain: Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills

This publication brings together OFSTED inspection and regulation data covering the period from September 2006 to August 2007.

Ofsted departmental report 2006-07

By: Great Britain: Office for Standards in Education,Great Britain, H.M. Treasury

The Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted) is a non-ministerial government department accountable to Parliament, which seeks to help improve the quality and standards of education and childcare through independent inspection and regulation. This departmental report covers Ofsted's work during the year 2006-07, as well as giving information on its organisational structure, expenditure and performance against Service Delivery Agreement targets. This is Ofsted's final report, as from April 2007 a new organisation was established called the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills (which will also be known as Ofsted). This new body brings together the work of the Adult Learning Inspectorate, the children's services responsibilities of the Commission for Social Care Inspection and the inspection functions of the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service from Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Court Administration with the work of the old Ofsted.

The annual report of Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Education, Children's Services and Skills 2010/11

By: Great Britain: Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills

Ofsted today publishes the Annual Report 2010/11, drawing on over 31,000 inspection visits across the schools, early years, children's social care and learning and skills sectors in England. Launched by Her Majesty's Chief Inspector Miriam Rosen, this in-depth analysis provides an insight into the quality of those services for children and learners, what is working well and what needs to improve. The report highlights how an inadequate inspection judgement, whether for a children's home or a school, a college or a nursery, can be an important catalyst for change. For example, the total number of schools in a category of concern - that is judged to be in special measures or being given a notice to improve - reduced from 553 at the end of last year to 451 at the end of August 2011. Over a fifth of schools judged inadequate at their previous inspection were found to be good or better when inspected again this year. In addition, schools are now emerging from special measures faster than the previous year - after an average of 18 months rather than 20. In inspections of local authorities'; children's social care, where Ofsted completed the second full year of unannounced inspection of contact, referral and assessment arrangements, weaknesses identified the previous year had been addressed in the great majority of cases.

Managing successful programmes

By: Great Britain. Office of Government Commerce

Combining rigour and flexibility, MSP helps all organisations - public sector and private, large and small - achieve successful outcomes from their programme management time and time again. With change a pressing reality for all organisations, successful programme management has never been more vital to success. Organisations must respond as new processes or services are introduced, supplier relationships alter and structures adapt to market forces or legislation. At the same time, all organisations strive to achieve excellence by improving practices, offering better services, preparing more effectively for the future and encouraging innovation. But change always creates new challenges and risks. Inevitably there will be interdependencies to manage and conflicting priorities to resolve as the organisation adapts not just to a new situation internally but to the constantly shifting world outside.To enable organisations to manage their programmes successfully, they need a structured framework that does two things. It must acknowledge that every programme exists in its own context and demands unique interpretation. At the same time it must be universally applicable. MSP has been developed with these two priorities in mind. Its framework allows users to consistently manage a huge variety of programmes so that they deliver quality outcomes and lasting benefits. Fusing leadership with management best practice, MSP enables organisations to coordinate their key functions, develop a clear sense of unity and purpose and achieve the strategic cohesion necessary to drive through effective change
