It has been my view for some time that many parents across the country do not use the Ofsted word grade as the only reason for choosing a school. There are lots of reasons, including the ability of the child to get to school in the morning, leaving the house at a reasonable time, the capacity of a family to create working travel arrangements, the climate of a school in terms of its welcome and relationship with feeder primary schools, the availability of schools in the local area, particularly in rural areas where a small local primary is the only school available. In these cases, parents may not be able to make a wide choice, whatever the Ofsted judgement. In these cases, a report card describing the provision will not be confusing; it could be quite helpful. Over the life of the Ofsted grading system, 5980 schools with RI or inadequate judgements remain. 1840 of these (8%) have been graded inadequate. For the people in the area where these schools exist, they don't have a choice; my question is whether, whatever system is put in place, the scorecard being the currently projected answer, will it prompt the level of improvement that the judgement suggests is necessary and does the system have the capacity to make the improvements required? A judgement system alone has failed the system. Pointing the finger and making victims of professionals has never been an effective strategy. It will be really powerful to see an education system that provides equity for all learners and a high-quality provision supported by an improvement service.

📚 Big Changes for School Inspections! 🚀 Ofsted's single-word school ratings are officially gone. Starting now, schools in England won't be simply labelled "outstanding," "good," "requires improvement," or "inadequate." Instead, schools will receive detailed report cards. These will cover areas like: - Quality of education - Behaviour - Personal development - Leadership The goal? To give parents better insights and help schools improve their standards. This major shift is a response to concerns from educators and parents alike. It aims to create a more supportive and transparent system. This change follows the tragic event involving primary headteacher Ruth Perry. The headteacher's mental distress, after severe Ofsted criticism, led to her taking her own life. Her sister, along with various educational unions, has welcomed the new approach. They believe it will remove undue pressure and provide a clearer picture of a school's performance. What are your thoughts on this new system? Will it help our schools and teachers focus better? Share your insights in the comments below. #EducationReform #Ofsted #SchoolInspections
