What makes an outstanding Ofsted lesson?

Inspection advice/guidance
How can teachers ensure their lessons are outstanding? What are inspectors looking for? This free SecEd "Guide To" publication considers the ingredients that go to making an outstanding Ofsted lesson.

SecEd's Guide To What Makes an Outstanding Lesson? offers at-a-glance advice on how teachers and schools can ensure their teaching and learning is outstanding under the new Ofsted inspection framework. 

The six-page SecEd Guide To, produced in partnership with the Association of School and College Leaders, gives a handy summary and overview of the main aspects that inspectors will be looking for in lessons and teachers, a checklist for outstanding lessons, and a case study and advice on how effective lesson observation and CPD can support schools to achieve outstanding teaching and learning.
