In This Session
This SchooliP × The Excellence Classroom leadership webinar helps schools and trusts make sense of the September 2026 inspection updates without turning them into another compliance exercise.
Rather than focusing on inspection cramming, the session explores how leaders can distinguish between activity, implementation, evidence and assurance, and how to test whether improvement priorities are genuinely reaching classroom practice and pupil experience. Delegates will consider the latest clarification around safeguarding, inclusion, SEND, leadership roles, progress and monitoring, while keeping the emphasis firmly on practical leadership decision-making.
The webinar introduces a simple “line-of-sight” approach that connects priorities to adult practice, pupil experience, evidence and leadership action. Through practical examples, leaders will explore how to identify implementation gaps, avoid over-reliance on paperwork or RAG ratings, and strengthen ownership, review rhythms and organisational visibility.
The session also shows how SchooliP and The Excellence Classroom provide complementary support: SchooliP helps structure, monitor and report improvement activity, while The Excellence Classroom helps leaders interpret, test and strengthen implementation.
By the end of the webinar, leaders should be better equipped to prioritise what matters, challenge weak assurance, and take a proportionate, practical approach to improvement over the months ahead.
