School inspection across the UK
Event Information
About this Event
Join us in this DLL Research Webinar led by Dr Bernie Munoz (Senior Research Fellow in Education) and Prof. Melanie Ehren (External Advisor), Department of Learning and Leadership, UCL Institute of Education to discuss the preliminary findings of The Edge funded project comparing school inspections across the UK.
The seminar will present:
(1) The theory of change of each of the four inspectorates of education in the UK
(2) How the inspection policy is perceived by stakeholders in each country; and
(3) What are stakeholders’ views of, and experiences with inspections.
Exploring and comparing the inspection regimes in the four countries of the UK is timely because whilst each country has its own system, new inspection frameworks have been recently introduced in England and will be shortly in place in Wales. Hence, we need to compare how and under what conditions longstanding and new inspection regimes can lead to change in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. This seminar will discuss the preliminary findings, as well as consider wider implications for research and practice.
