We inspect fire and rescue services (FRSs) in England annually. We assess services on their effectiveness and efficiency, and how well they look after their people; these three areas are called pillars. We judge them as outstanding, good, requires improvement or inadequate based on inspection findings, analysis and His Majesty’s Inspectors’ professional judgment. Each pillar comprises questions about core areas of FRS work.
We inspect services in one of three tranches across the inspection period. Grades for each service will appear below, when we publish our findings.
