The session will be on helping Curriculum leaders prepare for deep dives and it will address:
• The purposes of QA, what good monitoring, improvement and self-evaluation looks like and why this is useful in preparation for a deep dive
• Talking through how a deep dive works (from a Middle leader perspective) and the activities involved, e.g. curriculum conversation with Ofsted Inspector, work scrutiny etc.
• How to prepare for the crucial curriculum conversation with the Ofsted Inspector in your subject area
• Any mythbusting around Ofsted deep dives – so that staff know exactly what to expect and what not to expect
