F23 ISI Inspection Conference : Friday 1st March 2024 , Central London

The new ISI Inspection Framework is now in effect, known as Framework 23, there is a strong emphasis on promoting pupil wellbeing. Schools will be expected to demonstrate that they have reviewed and considered their provision for pupil wellbeing. You will also be expected to place a strong emphasis on pupil voice, developing a culture where pupils are able to share their views, wishes and feelings.

Join us for this full-day conference to ensure that you are prepared for your next inspection under the new framework. Building on the themes of the September 2023 Conference, you’ll hear from leading experts in independent school inspections, including Senior inspectors and the Former Chief Inspector of ISI. You will have plenty of opportunity to put your questions to our speakers, with dedicated time for questions, a panel discussion and ample networking time.

“The changes proposed represent an evolution of how we currently inspect schools. They build on the strengths of our current framework and consider the significant changes across education and wider society over the past six years.”​

Vanessa Ward, Chief Inspector-CEO at ISI
