History Ofsted Deep Dive Guide

(0)
Useful for Senior Leadership Links and Heads of Department/ Faculty/ Key Stage. My department recently had a very positive experience in an Ofsted Deep Dive. I have attached some useful materials to help other Heads of Department to support the process and to support their teams in what could be (but doesn’t need to be) a stressful experience. Firstly it is important to know- this is not a quick fix- you cannot pull the wool over their eyes if your department has a lot of work to do. However it is not a problem if you have areas of development as long as you and your team know what they are and you have a plan to address them. Included in the resources: -Powerpoint to present to team on what inspectors are looking for including Aide memoire used by Inspectors and questions we were asked during inspection as well as answers we used. -Curriculum map including rationale behind it -Assessment Map/ Overview -Examples of good practice vocabulary sheets
