Ofsted’s School Inspection Handbook and the ISS standards provide further information on how inspectors evaluate governance as part of the judgement on leadership and management. The Becklands school FGB will facilitate a whole school approach to safeguarding and child protection and ensures that they underpin and lie at the forefront of all relevant aspects of process and policy.
