• Learning outside the classroom was most successful when it was an integral element of long-term curriculum planning and closely linked to classroom activities.
• Too many residential and other visits considered during the survey had learning objectives which were imprecisely defined and not integrated sufficiently with activities in the classroom.

– How far should you go?”

Make explicit reference to your LOtC provision both within your ‘internal’ SEF and during on-site inspection. Challenge - to introduce inspectors to LOtC taking place during the visit – inspection outside the classroom!
• “The schools curriculum provides highly positive, memorable experiences and rich opportunities for high quality learning, has a positive impact on all pupils’ behaviour and safety and contributes very well to pupils achievement, and to their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development” (Leadership and Management Grade descriptor -Outstanding, Ofsted 2011 – new framework)
