About BSO Inspection

This inspection report follows the English Department for Education (DfE) Schedule for the inspection of British schools overseas. Education Development Trust is a body approved by the British Government for the purpose of inspecting schools overseas and quality assured by the Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted).
To be recognised by the Department for Education, a British School Overseas must have an inspection report which shows that their performance against all the standards is at least satisfactory. This reflects the standards required for continuing registration as a school in England. Schools meeting the standards will have their inspection reports published on the Department’s website and will be registered on Edubase. Read more about BSO Inspection.
