We have a local girls school which has been rapidly declining in standards over the years, new head around 5 years ago, the behaviour of the pupils (and their parents) is at times shocking.

All the other local schools have been hit twice over in this time. How have they escaped?!

My child's school hasn't had a full ofsted in over 14 years!!!!

It desperately needs one due to awful behaviour and little management of it.

I realise you can complain to ofsted but is there no way of just prompting them that a visit is needed?!

We were overdue an Ofsted inspection a few years ago.
Many schools around us were hit but we found out that the back log for ri and i were back logged so much that they were clearing them first.

We have now been done twice in 3 yrs.

We went 14 years between inspections
