Teachers blast Ofsted's 'toxic inspections' after headteacher took her own life while waiting for report
Teachers in Manchester have criticised what they claim is a 'broken' Ofsted system following the death of a headteacher.
The tragedy has sparked an outcry across the profession, with the National Education Union; school leaders' union NAHT; and the Association of School and College Leaders calling for inspections to be halted. After being inundated with stories from fellow teachers and headteachers about what he claims is a 'toxic inspection process', he decided to set up a form on which teachers can share their experiences anonymously.Many have accused Ofsted of creating a culture that's 'nothing short of toxic'; claim leaders are working under 'enormous amounts of pressure'; and that the 'broken' system 'needs to be abolished'.
"You'll never convince me that Ofsted in its current form is the best way of judging schools and holding them to account," he said. He thinks staff should 'not play into the system', highlighting their positive gradings with huge banners outside school when on another day, with a different inspector, the judgement could so easily have gone the other way.
