What do you mean ‘problem’? Everybody involved wants the inspection to go well, the correlation between the outcome of the inspection and the quality of the school/firm’s books is incidental at best.
The problem is the notice given which results in the low correlation you mention. (by audit I don’t really mean financial audits as I don’t have experience of those—I’m more thinking of quality audits)
I find it interesting that company audits (that I’ve experienced anyway) suffer from the same problem as ofstead inspections.
It is perhaps worth noting that Ofstead inspections are nowadays done with a day advance warning and can be done with no warning.
