Headteacher, Oaklands School, London, UK

When you have OFSTED in, you're not thinking about "our own school and our own self-review and evaluation", we're thinking "how are we going to get through this?" and hope that they don't find out the bad things, let's just get through it. But if you're actually involved yourself, you can't look at it in that way. You've got to be completely honest and up front about things. Because they feel that it's their own, that there's a sense of excitement about it as well, the notion that they can then, "Oh yes. We found out this about our department. This is really good", is something we can actually go on and develop. It is that sense of ownership that, I think, leads to it making a difference in the classroom. If you just have something done to you, you choose whether you're going to work on it or not and you choose whether you believe it or not. If it's something that you've done yourself, then you know you're actually going to do something about it.
