OfSTED, the Office for Standards in Education, is supposed to be a watchdog for parents, making sure that schools deliver a high quality of education to their children, no matter where they live or what their background. Examining the effects of OfSTED’s inspections of state and independent schools, de Waal intrerrogates Blair’s education reform and questions its intentions, standards and effects, especially with regards to independent schools and teachers.
