Ofsted has responded in full to a Prevention of Future Deaths report issued by HM Coroner, ahead of school and further education inspections being notified next week.

Ofsted has pledged to ‘always act with professionalism, courtesy, empathy and respect’, in a response to a Prevention of Future Deaths report issued by HM Coroner last December.

Ofsted’s chief inspector, Sir Martyn Oliver, has today (19 January 2024) published Ofsted’s formal response, addressing each of the recommendations set out by the coroner following the inquest into the death of headteacher Ruth Perry.

The letter sets out what action has been taken before, and immediately after the inquest as well as what Ofsted proposes to do next.
