This handbook is primarily a guide for inspectors on how to carry out non-association independent school inspections under section 109(1) and (2) of the Education and Skills Act 2008.

We also publish this for schools and other interested parties so that they are aware of Ofsteds inspection processes and procedures under the education inspection framework (EIF).
