Pre-registration Checklist
Are you in the process of registering an independent school? If your DfE application has gone through and you are preparing for that crucial pre-registration inspection, wouldn’t a detailed checklist of the policies and documents you need be useful?
Our pre-registration checklist gives you information about:
mandatory policies and documents required by the independent school standards and other regulations
additional documents and templates we suggest to help you demonstrate how you are plan to meet the standards
links to many relevant resources from our website and other sources
additional information that existing providers such as alternative provision or children’s homes that are already providing education need to provide when they register an independent school
This checklist has been developed over time from our work with groups that were looking to register independent schools.
Independent School Standards Compliance Audit Tool
An audit tool for use by school leaders to accurately evaluate the extent to which their schools meet the requirements of the Independent School Standards (2014). This tool was created with reference to DfE and Ofsted guidance:
It is written in plain English. Not all of the wording of the standards is included on this document. Instead, for each standard, there is a set of questions that require a yes/no response to determine if your school meets the requirements of the standard.
Feedback from Dan Tipp: Director of Belong Learning “We used your independent school standards audit tool recently - very helpful”
Version 10 - September 2024
From version 9a to version 10 the only standard which has had substantive changes is standard 15. This comes as a result of the updates to the regulations governing pupil registration and school attendance made on the 19th of August 2024. The rest of the changes are minor, focused on improving clarity and providing additional guidance.
