Overview of OFSTED's Personal Development Judgement
PD became a judgement area of Ofsteds Education Inspection Framework in September 2019. The Framework says:
“Inspectors will make a judgement on the personal development of learners by evaluating the extent to which:


The curriculum extends beyond the academic, technical or vocational. It provides for learners broader development, enabling them to develop and discover their interests and talents


The curriculum and the providers wider work support learners to develop their character including their resilience, confidence and independence and help them know how to keep physically and mentally healthy.


At each stage of education, the provider prepares learners for future success in their next steps


The provider prepares learners for life in modern Britain by:
a. Equipping them to be responsible, respectful, active citizens who contribute positively to society
b. Developing their understanding of fundamental British values
c. Developing their understanding and appreciation of diversity
d. Celebrating what we have in common and promoting respect for the different protected characteristics as defined in law.“
