The results demonstrate that school inspection plays a major part in improving schools, particularly in terms of teaching and learning, Instructors accept the feedback they receive from inspectors. However, Teaching and learning are negatively impacted by school inspections as well.; For example, school inspection compels certain schools to demonstrate activities they have never conducted before. Moreover, in certain instances, the recommendations and inspection reports for the school lack depth and are unrelated to the school context. However, there isn't a very good rapport between inspectors and teachers. This study makes several recommendations on how school inspections should be improved.
