A school leaders’ union will ask its members to consider not working as Ofsted inspectors amid widespread anger over the impact of inspection.
Delegates at the annual conference of NAHT school leaders’ union unanimously voted for an emergency motion this morning.
The motion called on its executive to “communicate to members who are inspectors a request to consider refraining from carrying out inspections” until the ongoing dispute with Ofsted and government is resolved.
It follows a call from Julia Waters, the sister of headteacher Ruth Perry, for heads working as inspectors to “hand in your badges” at the conference in Telford earlier today.
