PRE-INSPECTION HEALTH CHECKS
Newbubbles Ltd already offers open events dealing with every aspect of inspection and outstanding practice.
We can now offer FE providers expert-led pre-inspection health checks carried out by our team of current and former senior OFSTED inspectors. Whether you need a small-scale, department-level review, a critical friend with current OFSTED experience, or a larger, multi-site pre-inspection exercise, let our team support you.
For an initial consultation, at no charge, please e-mail Emma Jackson at gradeonetraining@newbubbles.com and we will arrange for one of our senior leads to discuss your needs by telephone.
|
One Day Supportive Self-Assessment
We support colleges in the self-assessment of departments and whole-college performance in a number of ways: providig a 'critical friend' input on self-assessment documentation, serving on self-assessment panels, leading workshops on writing self-assessment reports for managers and staff. The college receives a report of recommendations based on the evidence reviewed.
|
£750.00
(please contact us for half-day commitments)
|
|
Two day Observation Healthcheck, 1 inspector
For colleges who are looking undertake one or more of the following:
- tighten up existing observation procedures
- check grade-inflation before it becomes a concern
- replace their existing observation scheme with a new one
- move from graded to ungraded observations
- improve the coaching skills of advanced practitioners
- develop a robust and futureproof process for managing under-performing staff
- introduce peer observation for the first time.
A consultant will work with the college and its designated observation staff to align policy and process with the strategic direction and aspirations of the institution. All consultants are experts in observation. The college will receive a detailed set of recommendations on how to implement an improved process.
|
£1750.00

|
£1750.00
|
|
Two days OFSTED Mock Inspection, 2 inspectors
An exercise that replicates the real OFSTED 2-day inspection process in which inspectors will can undertake an agreed scope of provision with the college senior management team in one or more areas of specific interest, or a more randomly selected scope of provision controlled by the inspection team that offers a more testing, and less predictable inspection environment for confident, ambitious colleges. The college receives a detailed report of recommendations and two free spaces on an inspection training event of their choice.
|
£3,300.00
|
|
Three days OFSTED 'Deep Clean', 2 inspectors
A larger scale, more forensic audit exercise designed for colleges working towards good or outstanding. Recommended for colleges who have recently had a less favourable inspection exercise, or a college that perceives itself to be in a process of recovery. Inspectors will spend time working in highlighted areas, across the range of policy, staffing and curriculum areas that have been previously identified as in need of support. The college receives a detailed report, and 6 free spaces on an inspection training event of their choice.

£4,999.00

Event Fees:
Each individual event has its own costings - please check the event in question. If an event is listed as 1 day and you want a half-day, contact us at gradeonetraining@newbubbles.com and we can see if the event can be customised for a half-day.
Expenses:
Trainer expenses relate to travel, subsistence, occasional photocopying, parking and sometimes overnight accommodation. Where these are incurred - these are charged to the client at the following rates:
- Car Journeys - £0.50 per mile, using the AA Routeplanner.
- Train Journeys - trainers will use economy (2nd) class fares and this will be charged at its cost value.
- Plane Journeys - if required, the lowest possible fare will be secured and agreed with the client prior to booking.
- Taxis - where receipts are available, these are charged at cost.
- Car Parking - this will be charged to the client at cost.
- Accommodation - trainers will use our standard budget accommodation - Travelodge, Premier Inn or similar, OR accommodation suggested by the client. Receipts supplied and charged at cost. For all morning engagements, trainers will be expected to have an overnight stay unless the distance to the venue is less than 50 miles from their point of departure - this is assumed even if it is not explicitly referred to in day-to-day correspondence with the client. For afternoon engagements, the need for accommodation will be dependent on where the venue is and the actual start time, and if required, will be agreed with the client in advance.
- Subsistence - trainers will require an evening meal the night before - up to £30.00 is the sum that we will claim back from the client, charged at cost, all receipts will supplied where possible.
- Photocopying - this is not usually required, but where needed this will be charged at 10p per A4 copy. We will send you an electronic copy of the materials for the college/ instutution to copy on the day. This electronic version may be circulated to all relevant staff in your organisation, though the copyright remains with Newbubbles Ltd and/or the lead trainer.
When you book an in-house event with Newbubbles Ltd, expenses will always be charged in addition to the event fee, even if this is not explicitly mentioned in e-mail or verbal correspondence. Please ensure you check these details with us before making a booking. We will endeavour, at all times, to keep expenses to a minimum, and these will be invoiced separately to the client. We will submit receipts where this is possible to provide, but cannot guarantee this in every case.
