A teacher (or the board of a school) who disputes the process of an inspection or the content of an inspection report affecting the teacher or the school may request the Chief Inspector to conduct a review in accordance with procedures established under Section 13 (9) of the Education Act.

Since the commencement of 2006 a review has been sought in relation to one whole-school evaluation under the terms of the "Procedure for Review of Inspections on Schools and Teachers under Section 13 (9) of the Education Act 1998". This review is currently underway.
