His Majesty’s Chief Inspector, Sir Martyn Oliver, will talk about proposed changes to the new inspection framework and seek the views of delegates from the floor.
He will provide key insights into Ofsted’s proposals with a specific focus on what those changes mean for early years providers and why a strong sector response to its consultation is vital for progress.
He will also speak about what he sees are the key priorities for early years and for inspection and what can be expected from Ofsted going forward.
Jayne Coward, Ofsted’s deputy director, Early Years Regulatory Policy and Practice will also be speaking.
