Ofsted should temporarily switch to a model of ungraded inspections and boost notice periods for schools as it prepares longer-term reforms in response to Ruth Perry’s death, a leaders’ union has said.
The NAHT, which represents tens of thousands of headteachers and other leaders, has published a report on “rethinking school inspection”.
It comes as Ofsted is putting the finishing touches to its official response to a report from the coroner in Perry’s inquest, due to be published on Friday.
She warned last month that there was a “risk of future deaths if there is only lip service paid to learning from tragedies like this”.
