The government has defended "an inhumane and unreliable inspection system that is driving a mental health and well-being crisis across England’s schools". "We cannot rule out something awful happening again in future if the inspectorate does not change". @PaulWhiteman6

The Big Listen is not listening Just a holding task until we get a new government Our Survey of Headteachers’ experiences of OFSTED is from the coal face, and it’s being ignored, along with the views of thousands of Heads, school leaders & parents headsup4hts.co.uk/wp-content/upl…
Single word reductive Ofsted judgments are contributing to a recruitment & retention crisis and driving poor mental health outcomes for staff. Regrettably, they are used by the current Government to crudely categorize schools, which is why there is little appetite for reform.
Today is new website day!

@HeadsUp4HTs Completing the last of our Early Headship Coaching peer groups for the summer term! Such a privilege 😊
Some news shared with our @UplandsManor community today. It’s the best school with the best children, and we are now looking for a new head teacher! Please spread the word and help us find an amazing leader! Job information is on our website: uplandsmanor.sch.life/Page/Category/…
We're working with @johndunford and our members to help inform future thinking on how #Ofsted could most helpfully report their inspections of schools and better support school leaders to develop a rigorous whole education. Get in touch with us to join the conversation 📨
Our inspection system should be formative and supportive of school development, whilst also offering parents a more nuanced and narrative based view of school quality. #Ofsted
We are saddened with the decision to keep single word judgements. In our view they should be consigned to the past, being unhelpfully simplistic and drawing attention away from where it is truly required. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… #Ofsted
“a quarter of parents (25%) agree that reports help them to understand a school's strengths and weaknesses, but more than six in ten (61%) disagree. Similar proportions (23% versus 60%) agree or disagree that reports help a school to make improvements to the quality of education”
Sometimes it takes several small steps for a big #change to happen. Here are some of the steps that our attendees at a #BigEdConversation pledged to take place earlier this year🌟 What is the one small step you are willing to take today to reimagine #education?🔥 #community
It's #FeelgoodThursday. OK, it isn't, not after that appalling report from the Ofsted committee. But I'd like it to be feelgood Thursday... tell us one thing that has made you feel good today.
It’s too easy to say parents want a simple judgement - the issue is it has to be the right judgement Sir Michael Wilshaw tells @BBCr4today

@wesstreeting @bphillipsonMP @Keir_Starmer @lisanandy Is anyone listening?
The government has defended "an inhumane and unreliable inspection system that is driving a mental health and well-being crisis across England’s schools". "We cannot rule out something awful happening again in future if the inspectorate does not change". @PaulWhiteman6
The Government has said the system of one-word Ofsted judgements for schools in England has "significant benefits" and should stay. The sister of head teacher Ruth Perry, who took her own life after her school was downgraded, told #BBCBreakfast she was deeply upset…
@HeadsUp4HTs @jennypurplemoon @chrisrogers6311 @MattWhiteley3 @popejames @MrEFinch @anson_kari @ZoeKing46380422 @girle_jane And I’m in the hot seat tomorrow .. it could be interesting …
@Hannahbcohen1 @WinsorPrimary @BigEdConvoEng @bigchange_ @HeadsUp4HTs It was really fun to participate in the conversation. 😊
#PrimaryFutures - What's going on? How did we get here? How can we do better? I've been talking to some awesome people about the good and 'even better if' of our primary schooling and imagining brighter futures. Sign up to get episodes as they come out. mailchi.mp/brookes.ac.uk/…
The response uses Julia, Lisa and my work with the Secretary of State, last year, as validation of Gillian Keegan's decisions, when we are clear that what reform there has been in Ofsted in no way remedies the most egregious pressures on headteachers present in the system...
@DowningAndy @Julespg @PaulGarvey4 @dave_mcpartlin @Headteacherchat @johncosgrove405 There are bound to be examples of educators who have no issues with the system or its implementation. Does that mean that reform is not needed. No, it simply should not be acceptable that a headteacher losing their life is an allowable consequence of an accountability process.
@WhistleblowingT I remember inspecting a rural primary school and questioned the lack of diversity in their curriculum. "But we only have white British pupils here so we don't need to". QED!
@Edmund_B_W @simonkidwell @NAHTnews Edmund, I agree ATM change is in the hands of the profession itself. There is no saviour on a white horse coming to rescue us. NEU has compiled a risk assessment tool that all schools could use to hold inspectors feet to the fire. A means of using H+S to Protect us from OFSTED
@simonkidwell @NAHTnews Simon, has the time has come for more collaboration between the unions? Julia lobbied for change, a coroner instructed them to consider change, and an incredibly well informed select committee inquiry insisted on change that is still denied to us. We all need reform now.
Single word reductive Ofsted judgments are contributing to a recruitment & retention crisis and driving poor mental health outcomes for staff. Regrettably, they are used by the current Government to crudely categorize schools, which is why there is little appetite for reform.
@branwenjeffreys They have done for independent schools why not state schools ?
@HeadsUp4HTs Playing outside at lunchtime. I retrieved resources from ‘the shed’ so was very popular.
Starting the day with a reward for a student who has made massive changes which allows them to be successful ,not just now, but in their future life too.
As always, Edmund is spot on. Can anybody tell me - what's the point of having a Select Committee? Why did they gather evidence? Why did they speak to people like me to get our views? Waste of time & money!
I’ve read the government’s response to the Select Committee’s Inquiry into Ofsted’s Work with Schools, and it is the most pathetic excuse for can-kicking inaction I have ever seen. It is an absence of a response, a vacuum of responsibility, a void of accountability…
It doesn’t change my determination to see root and branch reform at Ofsted. Gillian has made a choice; for whatever reason she’s ignoring the sister, the headteacher, the parent, the coroner, the entire select committee and all the knowledge of all the experts that informed them.
How concepts help pupils to learn the curriculum It turns out that if we identify the concepts aka big ideas and teach pupils these, then they are likely to know more, remember more and be able to do more, over time...
