Harris Boys ED - next OFSTED?

Just wondering whether Harris Boys might have another OFSTED inspection - does anyone know what happens with outstanding schools? I'm really impressed with what I've seen of the school and definitely considering it for my son in a couple of years but the ofsted report is from 2011. Is it likely to get reinspected any time soon?

In summary - no. The average interval between inspection for outstanding schools is longer than that. They are monitored in terms of results and if there is a fall in results from where they would be expected to be they could expect a visit from OFSTED, alternatively if there are complaints re safeguarding etc.


Basically outstanding schools are exempt from inspection until something happens to indicate they might not be 'oustanding' any more.

Ofsted are so hit and miss with their inspection dates and like to keep all providers on their toes! I do think that the OP has a point and an inspection from 2011 might differ from 7 years later, especially at a secondary school.


Then again, there are some providers in primary school education that have not had an Ofsted inspection for over 10 years.
