'I'm taking the stand!' Headteacher to refuse Ofsted inspection following Ruth Perry death
Calls to boycott OfstedAt least two unions have called on Ofsted to pause inspections - the National Education Union and the National Association of Head Teachers .
"This is an agency that is completely out of touch, and which is making claims and judgements which are unreliable. This can't go on." Ms Perry had been a former pupil of Caversham Primary and Ms Waters said the inspection destroyed 32 years of her vocation and"preyed on her mind until she couldn't take it anymore".
