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.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
