Resource details
Staff Wellbeing and Workload Self-Review Questions for Leaders (2026/27) is a self-review tool for headteachers, senior leaders and governors. 2026/27 edition, rewritten for the Ofsted school inspection toolkit (v2.0) for inspections from 7 September 2026, where staff wellbeing and workload sit within the leadership and governance evaluation area.
The toolkit asks whether leaders take account of staff wellbeing, keep workload manageable, protect staff from bullying and discrimination, and use staff time well, and whether the responsible body considers leaders' own workload and wellbeing.
What's inside
- 24 questions in five sections: staff wellbeing and workload; leaders' own workload and wellbeing; professional learning; listening to staff; and governance
- An evidence column and a next-step column for every question
- A summary of what the expected and strong standards look like
- A priorities and actions table
Editable Word document, 4 pages, landscape.
