There is not an equivalent inspection of the trusts which run academy chains (groups of academies). Annually, Ofsted publishes a national report on education. It also produces occasional regional or thematic reports. The Department for Education publishes an annual report on academies showing the performance of this specific sector.The Department for Education publishes the aggregated results of national tests in performance tables. National averages are also provided to schools along with their own pupil’s results.Section IV. ReformsFrom September 2015, Ofsted will no longer contract with Inspection Service Providers (ISPs) for the delivery of school inspection services. Additional Inspectors (AI), who are currently contracted through ISPs to undertake inspections on behalf of Ofsted, will continue to form a significant part of the inspection workforce. However, from September 2015, AI will be contracted directly by Ofsted, giving Ofsted more direct control over their selection, training and quality assurance.Also from September 2015, under proposals being consulted upon, Ofsted (subject to the will of Parliament) will introduce shorter inspections for school judged to be good at their previous inspection. The inspections will take place every three years, will report on whether or not a provider has maintained its overall effectiveness but will not provide a full set of graded judgements. A new inspection framework will make graded judgements on the following areas, using the existing four-point scale of outstanding, good, requires improvement and inadequate:• effectiveness of leadership and manage-ment; • quality of teaching, learning and assessment; • personal development, behaviour and welfare; • outcomes for children and learners.
