I wish to make two points. In the area of self-evaluation, I take it that the entire school community would be involved in that - parents, teachers and pupils. I seek clarification on that.

Will Dr. Hislop give us more information on what the detailed school inspections entail? Would the inspectors look at the provision of special education within a school? Would they inspect that as a separate issue? Does Dr. Hislop have any information on the way schools are performing in that area? Does it come down to a lack of resources or a lack of qualifications? Does Dr. Hislop have any information on that?

I do not mean to be flippant but who inspects the inspectors?
