One-word Ofsted judgments are to be scrapped by the Government - after a coroner's report listed an inspection as a factor in the suicide of head teacher Ruth Perry. It comes after the suicide of head teacher Ruth Perry last year - a coroner concluded a critical report from the school inspectors was a factor in her death.
“This government will make inspection a more powerful, more transparent tool for driving school improvement. We promised change, and now we are delivering.”As part of today’s announcement, where schools are identified as struggling, government will prioritise rapidly getting plans in place to improve the education and experience of children, rather than relying purely on changing schools’ management.
