Estyn Inspection Outcome

In June 2017, Ysgol Ty Coch was inspected by HMI ESTYN.  ESTYN inspects schools in Wales and provides an external judgement evaluating the performance of each school.  ESTYN Inspect 3 key questions:

1. How Good are the outcomes?

2. How good is the provision?

3. How good is leadership and management?

These judgements lead to 2 overall judgements, which are:

1. Current Performance

2. Prospects for Improvement

However, in September 2017, ESTYN released their latest inspection framework. This video will explain more (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNZBKB_OK_4)
