Ref: 100135
This handbook provides guidance on the implementation of the Common Inspection Framework for inspecting all education and training within the further education and skills sector.
The handbook is available to probation trusts and other organisations to ensure that they are well informed about the process and procedures of inspection.
Ofsted joins Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation on their inspection of offender management in local areas. Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Probation inspection arrangements are known as Offender Management Inspections 2 (OMI 2). The OMI 2 criteria and Ofsted’s Common Inspection Framework have been more closely aligned to ensure that the findings from inspection can effectively fulfil the individual findings of both inspectorates and enable the production of separate reports.
