The CIFcomprises:
- the common inspection schedule
- procedures in the case that the provision is inadequate
- principles of inspection
- a code of conduct for inspectors
- a procedure for making complaints about inspection
The Common Inspection Framework can be downloaded from the Ofsted web site.
