Deferral of inspections: information for schools
06 Aug 2010
This document was revised in August 2010.
There are a limited number of circumstances in which a decision can be taken that an inspection should not go ahead on the planned dates. The purpose of this policy is to set out Ofsted’s approach to the deferral, cancellation and rescheduling of inspections. The policy does not apply to decisions to reschedule the start date of an inspection within five working days.
