The National Education Union reminds us that it is the anniversary of Ruth's untimely death.
Today we remember a hardworking, well respected head teacher, Ruth Perry, who is very much missed.
Ofsted’s new framework does not address the harm inherent in a grades-based schools accountability system, and it does not address significant risks to staff wellbeing and safety.
We call for a new system that is supportive, effective and fair – one that will support school leaders, not punish them.
