External inspections of DCS schools and settings are to be conducted in accordance with the DfE Standards issued in November 2016 and must be carried out by a provider registered with and approved by the DfE to inspect overseas schools under the BSO Scheme.

- The distinctiveness of each school;
- Whether there is evidence that local requirements are being met;

- Whether the school is providing their pupils with the skills and qualifications they need to enter and re-enter the British education system.
