"Ofsted’s new inspection framework is a welcome step in building a child protection system that is focused on the needs, views and experiences of vulnerable children. In her independent review of child protection last year Professor Munro advised that inspections should give greater weight to feedback from children and families, and that Ofsted should move to unannounced inspections because professionals and local authorities were spending too much time preparing for inspections. Ofsted’s changes will help put the focus back on the child and assess whether they and their families are really getting the help they need – rather than being a tick box exercise.”
