Ofsted’s latest pronouncements are highly problematic. thealternativebiglisten.co.u…

Respondents to The Alternative Big Consultation were asked what they wanted reformed inspection system to look like. Responses were similar to how many other countries utilise inspection and regulation. Very different to Ofsted's current proposals thealternativebiglisten.co.u…
Well said @pepediiasio . This is why so many experienced, pragmatic voices have supported @FrankWNorris proposals. We really could sort this mess @Ofstednews . Thank you @tes @jon_severs for keeping the attention focused on this nationally vital matter.

Exciting times. A merger of equals would benefit both sets of schools, communities and the wider system.
A hugely positive move to combine the expertise of Ebor and Nexus into a specialist trust for 47 primary and special schools.
@jasminenorden sat down with the two chairs of trustees to talk about 'values-led' mergers and what they will bring the sector

In a context of rapid change and limited resources, the best CEOs right now are masters in the art of focus and prioritisation. To remain so, they are first and foremost chief learners. #BeingTheCEO

A post I tweeted on Monday when our granddaughter's primary school got the call has had +68k views, +1k likes and only one negative comment. It's clear Ofsted needs to reconsider inspection arrangements for the week before the Christmas break.
Fully agree. This is about the chasing of inspection volume targets sadly. It’s ill advised and, as a former HMI, I don’t support it. Bad form @Ofstednews . I’m sure this was fed back during the Big Listen ….

A former teacher at Mossbourne Community Academy has got in touch with a detailed account of their experience working there, from a critical perspective. Anyone wanting to get in touch with a different - perhaps more positive - first-hand take on it, please do so. Please RT.

Anyone interested in Ofsted should read this brilliant thread from @Edmund_B_W @ Julia Ruth Perry’s sister, two people who know better than all of us why fiddling at the edges of a dangerous system will do nothing at all to solve the real issues or prevent another death.

Simply NO. No watchdog can reform itself. These proposals will be already distressing many school leaders. We urge @bphillipsonMP to look at the Beyond Ofsted report as a starter.

'If we miss the best opportunity we will ever have, our most vulnerable young people will continue to lose.' @JonnyUttley says @bphillipsonMP's speech last week promised a radical positive change in education

Wise words from @JonnyUttley

We can empathise with voters + accept the result but Trump’s victory does not make his program or vision better. We were wrong to believe Kamala Harris would win. We were not wrong to believe that she should have won. Or that the values + vision that she represents can win again

Some powerful implications here about the caution necessary when introducing therapy or therapeutic interventions into the school environment: first, do no harm. Well-meant, amateur strategies can go badly wrong, and even make things worse for vulnerable children. theguardian.com/society/2024…

It’s inspiring to see how @RestIsPolitics and @campbellclaret and @RoryStewartUK’s books have engaged and activated so many people – young people especially. Big respect to all involved.

Government strategy for education needs to be blended in to an overall vision for the country. @mikip555

In every corner of our country, I meet people fizzing with ideas about how we can deliver the richer, broader, cutting-edge curriculum this government seeks to deliver and that our children deserve.
