The Care Inspectorate and Education Scotland have published a draft version of the new shared inspection framework. 

We would like to hear your feedback on this new framework and invite you to answer twelve short questions in this online survey which closes on 22 December 2023.

Once we have considered your views, we will publish the final shared inspection framework in January 2024.

Implementation timeframe

We will test out the shared framework on a number of inspections in settings from January 2024. During this time, we will continue to listen to and consider your views to make any changes that are needed.

Both Education Scotland and the Care Inspectorate will then implement the new framework during inspections from September 2024.

We would like to thank you all again for your support in the development of this shared inspection framework and look forward to hearing your views in shaping the final framework.
