ABSTRACT
Inspection and self-evaluation have traditionally confined their inquiries to school and classroom as if that was where the quality of pupil learning could be found and evaluated. The New Relationship and its embrace of Every Child Matters means that schools will now have to take a wider view of sites and contexts of learning. The advocacy of personalised learning raises the need to understand more about the nature of out of school learning, while learning in informal sites and through more formal provision in study support, is now at a premium. This chapter explores those issues and raises questions as to the compass of self-evaluation and the reach of inspection.
