Estyn Inspection of Blaenau Gwent Local Education Authority’s School Improvement and School Support Services

Estyn, Her Majesty’s Inspectorate for Education and Training in Wales, together with representatives of the Wales Audit Office inspected these local education services in January 2007.

In March 2007, a report on the inspection was published.  Both sets of services were judged to be good services but with some barriers to further improvement.  As well as highlighting the good features of the services, the inspectors made a number of recommendations to achieve further improvements.

In July 2007, the Council’s Executive approved an action plan drawn up to address the recommendations in the action plan.

Both the inspection report and the post inspection action plan are available below.
