Bringing about change after inspection: how can outside consultants help?

Abstract

This article reports on the process of bringing about change in a school for pupils with severe learning difficulties following a poor OFSTED report. In common with many special schools the demands on staff in small schools are high and there is a particular difficulty of finding specialist expertise. Consequently, schools and LEAs are often in the position of seeking outside support, which may be hurriedly arranged in less than optimum conditions. We report on the challenges to these consultants and some of the lessons learnt.
