Popis: In this article, we enquire on the vision about Educational Inspectorate from the school point of view. To do so, we triangulated the data provided by five groups that seem determinant in this research: on the one hand, the opinion of Primary teachers; secondly, the considerations of Elementary State School principals; third, the contributions of administration and services staff; fourth, the perceptions of student’s parents and legal guardians and, ultimately and prominently, the vision of the students themselves, as main protagonists and the true ‘raison d’être’ of our educational system. The research, implemented in Spain during the school year 2017/2018 through interviews and the application of a questionnaire, reveals that although the assessment made by all groups about the Spanish Inspectorate is relevant, by understanding that this institution is important and has ability to influence school improvement, somehow evidences the need for the Inspection to be more in touch with school life and less with office bureaucracy.
