Office for Standards in Education
The new OFSTED (the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills) came into being on 1 April 2007. It brings together the wide experience of four formerly separate inspectorates. It will inspect and regulate care for children and young people, and inspect education and training for learners of all ages.
The Education and Inspectors Act set out the general duties to be placed on Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of schools and preserves the Chief Inspector's independent and sole responsibility for Inspection judgements.
