"The inspection of schools' practice in the care and welfare of residential pupils is a central responsibility of HM Inspectors. It is clear from our published reports that schools with residential pupils need to foster and support a culture of self-evaluation. In any future HMI judgement of the quality of residential care of pupils, a key consideration will undoubtedly be whether a school has effective practices for evaluating and improving its performance on a continuing basis."

HM Senior Chief Inspector of Schools
