Multi-academy Trusts: Inspections
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps her Department plans to take to enable the inspection of multi academy trusts.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
Inspection of multi-academy trusts is a complex proposal, and it is essential that we get it right to make the system fairer, more transparent and to enable direct intervention where necessary. The department is engaging with the education sector and working with Ofsted to support the development of our proposals.
We remain committed to bringing multi-academy trusts into the inspection system, as set out in the government’s manifesto.
