Free Schools are subject to Ofsted inspections in the same way as all other state funded schools. From January 2012 inspections have had a stronger focus on quality of teaching. Failure to teach evolution as an extensively evidenced theory would affect Ofsted's assessment of the school.
To formalise our expectation that evolution is included in the science curriculum in Free Schools we will include a requirement to teach evolution as a comprehensive, coherent and extensively evidenced theory in future funding agreements for Free Schools.
