Detailed information on SIAMS inspections as at September 25

Schools routinely undertake their own self-evaluation and as part of the SIAMS inspection process are asked to provide an element of this to the inspector. This guidance pertains to this element with the inspector as the audience. It necessarily links to the large and detailed self-evaluation which you all have in school which is for you and your team, but is only a snapshot of it.

Having a clear Christian vision for education enables the translation of a school’s original foundation and purpose into its present-day policies and practices, thereby enabling people to flourish. For Church schools, all aspects of this are rooted in theology. The 2023 SIAMS Framework shines a spotlight on these key elements – theology, school context, and vision. It allows inspectors and school leaders, together, to gather evidence to answer the Inspection Questions, in turn enabling inspectors to reach fair and accurate judgements. In doing so, it moves the Church of England and Methodist Church’s inspection practice forward, respecting the knowledge and expertise of school leaders, allowing them to tell their stories, and holding them to account.
