Delivering on the new Ofsted promise - 'Raising standards, improving lives'

The new Ofsted has a huge reach. We have the potential to help improve the lives of more than one in three people in England who use the services we inspect or regulate. This is an enormous responsibility. To realise our potential the new Ofsted needs to be truly outstanding as an organisation. We have great strengths to build on, many of them brought from our predecessor inspectorates. But we cannot and should not look backwards. The capability review rightly points to the new challenges of the changing environment in which we work.

Developing social, emotional and behavioural skills in secondary schools

The Secondary National Strategy's pilot programme, Developing social, emotional and behavioural skills, was introduced to 54 schools in five local authorities in the summer term of 2005 and to a sixth authority one term later. Ofsted evaluated the pilot programme over five terms in 11 schools. The schools were selected to represent a range of types of school. After five terms, the greatest impact in the schools was on teachers' attitudes towards the idea of social, emotional and behavioural skills and their understanding of how to develop these skills systematically within subject lessons. Where the pilot was most effective, teachers adjusted teaching methods to take account of the pupils' specific needs. As a result, pupils worked better in teams, were better able to recognise and articulate their feelings, and showed greater respect for each other's differences and strengths.

Direct learning support in colleges: a survey of current practice

Many adults and 16- to 18-year-old learners in colleges need extra help to enable them to reach their full potential in their studies. In 2005/06 inspectors from Ofsted and the Adult Learning Inspectorate (ALI) evaluated the quality of the literacy, numeracy and language support learners receive in 29 colleges across the country. The colleges were selected because they had received good or better grades for their Skills for Life provision in a previous inspection.

Domestic violence, safety and family proceedings

A 2005 review of the handling of domestic violence issues by CAFCASS and the administration of family courts in HMCS. Although the criminal courts deal with prosecutions involving domestic violence, family courts and CAFCASS frequently deal with similar allegations. The inspection looked at how family courts handle such issues in their administrative arrangements. It also examined CAFCASS strategic management and its frontline practice when dealing with similar cases.
