Lead With Confidence. Evidence What Matters.

The CCSG Ofsted Readiness & Governance Programme is designed for supported accommodation leaders and managers who want to strengthen everyday management practice, governance and regulatory readiness.

Across 8 structured modules and 24 professional video lessons, you will explore service models, registration boundaries, quality standards, safeguarding, dynamic risk, children’s voice, support planning, workforce competence, premises oversight and management assurance.

This is practical professional development — not simply inspection preparation. You will apply your learning through realistic scenarios, knowledge checks, professional tools and the Willow View Applied Assessment.

Everything You Need to Apply the Learning

Your programme includes 8 structured modules, 24 professional video lessons, a comprehensive programme handbook and practical application workbook.

You will also receive 12 professional management and governance tools, module knowledge checks, a 40-question final knowledge assessment and the Willow View Applied Assessment.

Complete the programme with structured self-review and a CCSG Certificate of Completion.
