Future arrangements for school self-evaluation forms
You may have seen the Secretary of State’s recent announcement, which confirmed that the school self-evaluation form (SEF) for maintained schools is to be withdrawn with effect from September 2011.

This will mean that the Ofsted school information and evaluation form for independent schools (SIEF) will also be withdrawn at the same time. Inspectors will continue to make full use of the SEF and SIEF during school inspections which take place during the present academic year.


Just saw this on the Ofsted home page , do you think we not have to do it from September too or does it just apply to schools:p

Just schools as far as I know. Haven't seen anything to say we're off the hook too!

So wished we didn't have to do it, don't mind doing evaluating my practice, I find it quite useful but the SEF is so long and repetitive.

It was Complusory for schools to do the Sef.

It is not Complusory for us to do it so they won't tell us not to IYSWIM!!!
