Challenge Partners

Challenge Partners is a practitioner-led national network of schools that that supports improvement through peer review, challenge and shared learning.

Each school receives an annual Quality Assurance Review, led by senior leaders from partner schools, to explore learning, practice and whole-school improvement. Reviews are based on professional dialogue and result in a report that summarises the key findings from the visit. 

The QA Review is not an inspection and does not evaluate safeguarding or directly compare with Ofsted judgements.
