The sister of headteacher Ruth Perry has called on leaders who also work as inspectors to “hand in your badges” and “refuse to be complicit in Ofsted’s reign of terror”.
Professor Julia Waters addressed the annual conference of school leaders’ union NAHT this morning.
It comes amid an ongoing outpouring of anger towards Ofsted over the pressure placed on school staff in the wake of Perry’s death.
Her family say she took her own life in January before the publication of an inspection report at Caversham Primary School that downgraded her school from ‘outstanding’ to ‘inadequate’. They blame pressure from the Ofsted process for her death.
