Dibs Patel, assistant head of leisure and youth services, said the council hoped to have the team in place in the next six to 12 months.
"The creation of a young people's inspection team builds on the concept of youth participation," said Patel.
Barnet's youth service will provide training for the young people's inspection team and may ask the Government inspectorate Ofsted to contribute.
The inspections are part of a package of reforms that are currently being adopted by Barnet's youth service. They stem from an Ofsted report published in March that deemed the service "unsatisfactory" (YPN, 3-9 September, p5).
The reforms also include an increased emphasis on work with young people deemed "in need or at risk" and some internal restructuring, notably the youth service moving from leisure to education.
