Inspections of school Jewish studies have been put back another term until autumn.
Full inspections were due to resume this summer after being suspended with the lockdown in March last year.
But Pikuach, the Board of Deputies' inspection service, has announced a further delay in line with the policy of Ofsted.
Jeffrey Leader, director of Pikuach, said, "After discussions with Ofsted and the Department for Education, we have been assured that no schools will be penalised if they were due an inspection during the period in which they have been postponed.”
Ofsted said full inspections would not return until the new academic year since schools were closed to most pupils for most of the spring term.
