Are you looking for fresh inspiration to take your school to outstanding and beyond?

This programme explores the areas set out in the new Ofsted framework through visits to four outstanding schools across the country. You will have valuable time to reflect, discuss and share strategies for school improvement as well as considering excellent practice through the lens of SSAT’s Framework for Exceptional Education.
