Ratings
All inspections under the new approach will ultimately result in ratings
We will use a four point scale
Outstanding
Good
Requires improvement
Inadequate
Ratings will always take account of data/intelligence and what we see and hear at inspections.
We will use judgement to combine multiple factors

Four point scale
High level characteristics of each rating level
Innovative, creative, constantly striving to improve, open and transparent
Consistent level of service people have a right to expect, robust arrangements in place for when things do go wrong
May have elements of good practice but inconsistent, potential or actual risk, inconsistent responses when things go wrong
Severe harm has or is likely to occur, shortfalls in practice, ineffective or no action taken to put things right or improve
