The Government has said it will 'continue to listen to views and look at alternative systems'
Ofsted will persist with its single-phrase judgments despite mounting pressure to abandon the approach in the wake of headteacher Ruth Perry's death.
Union leaders in the education sector have labelled the Government's stance as "deeply disappointing", viewing it as a lost chance for "meaningful change". In December, it was ruled by a coroner that Mrs Perry's death in 2022 was "contributed" to by the Ofsted inspection conducted on November 15-16. A report by the Education Select Committee in January called on the DfE and Ofsted to develop an alternative to the single-word judgments "as a priority" to better capture the "complex nature of a school's performance".
The DfE added that it agreed with the cross-party group that part of this is about "increasing visibility" of the graded sub-judgments that Ofsted makes – such as "quality of education" and "behaviour and attitudes". "The small tweaks to the current, dangerous system that have so far been offered do not go anywhere near far enough. We need to see urgent, root-and-branch reform of this fatally flawed inspection system," she added.
He said the DfE's response "smacks of a government that is out of touch with parents and professionals alike." "The DfE's refusal to accept that single-word judgments should be scrapped will be met with dismay across the teaching profession," he said.
