Best Practices of British School
Administration and management
LEA acts more like a consultant than a bereaucrate. Minimum inteference and hardly any teachers call out for meetings, courses, briefing etc.Many new policies and procedures briefing done via web with the HT fully accountable if not transmitted/ tranferred to the school
Excellent web portals to disseminate policies and information with very informative and up to date information
Big allocation for CPD
Use of Contextual Valued Added to measure school performance

OFSTED = Office For Standard of Education
OFSTED was formed under Education and Inspection Act 1996
The New OFSTED was formed in April 2007 with their corporate slogan- improvement through inspection
