Estyn – What it Means for Our School
Estyn is the Education and Training Inspectorate for Wales. Its purpose is to inspect and report on the quality and standards of education and training across the country.
When Estyn visits schools, it looks at how well pupils are learning, the progress they are making, how well the school is led and managed, and the overall quality of teaching and support provided.
The reports produced by Estyn help schools celebrate strengths and identify areas for improvement. They are also a helpful guide for parents and carers to understand how well a school is performing.
