The new Ofsted framework is here - and schools across England are preparing for their first inspections. But what does it really mean for pupil wellbeing and inclusion?
Join Thrive’s Tom Preston and Viv Trask-Hall, alongside a special guest speaker, as they explore what’s happening on the ground one-month in. We'll unpack how schools are interpreting the new ‘Inclusion’ evaluation area - and what this means in everyday practice. We'll also explore how the ‘Personal Development and Wellbeing’ focus is being applied in real-world settings, along with practical suggestions to support pupil wellbeing in line with Ofsted expectations.
You’ll leave with fresh perspectives, practical takeaways, and renewed confidence to build inclusive, emotionally healthy learning environments.
Tom leads Thrive’s work in building partnerships that help every child flourish. With a background in teaching, educational leadership, and research at Harvard University, he’s passionate about working with schools, trusts, and local authorities to embed a whole-school approach to mental health and wellbeing. Tom finds it deeply rewarding to see the real difference this work makes in the lives of children and young people.
