Tomorrow we will share early insights from His Majesty’s Chief Inspector’s Annual Report.

These early insights will provide a snapshot of what’s been going well and what needs to improve within each of the education and training sectors we inspect in Wales.

Our inspection teams have brought together initial recommendations that each sector can consider ahead of the full sector reports released early next year.

Each sector can also view highlights from recent effective practice case studies.
