The new Ofsted inspection framework is detrimental to schools, staff, parents, and students. The chance to overhaul the system by removing one-word grades was missed, leaving the harsh and high-stakes impacts unchanged. How can you help? See the comment for more
#EducationReform #AbolishOfsted
Ofsted’s new Nandos-style framework is just ‘high-level tinkering’ – not the urgent reform we needed for a fair, supportive inspection system. @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social this won’t fix recruitment or retention in schools #AbolishOfsted

Ofsted’s new reforms, rolled out this week despite widespread concern amongst the profession, will not support schools.
Educators deserve an inspectorate that supports them, not one that punishes them.
#AbolishOfsted
Ofsted’s inspections are superficial and don’t help parents understand school life.
Educators and parents are being let down by an outdated inspectorate. It is time for radical change.

📢 Educators deserve better. Schools deserve better. Our children deserve better.**
The current Ofsted framework is punitive✊ We stand with educators, unions, and families demanding change. 👨👩👧👦 Parents — your voice matters. Speak to your school, write to your MP, and join the call to #AbolishOfsted

“it’s not easy for the schools and colleges when ministers measure them primarily by exam results, and have a toxic institution that is OfStEd doing the inspections.” cambridgetownowl.com/2024/04/29/y... Me in 2024. #AbolishOfsted

It seems fitting that on International Workers' Memorial Day Prof. Julia Waters should be talking about how unsafe the new proposed Ofsted inspection system is youtube.com/watch?v=wCz8R4C3L98

"Ofsted has failed to take seriously the enormous concerns of the profession. The proposals outlined in today’s consultation will make matters worse, not better." - Daniel Kebede, NEU general secretary.
#AbolishOfsted
Ofsted has failed to take seriously the enormous concerns of the profession. It is a discredited organisation with its name continually in the mud. It is incapable of introspection or change – time to #AbolishOfsted and replace it with a new system that is supportive, effective and far.
We hear these experiences time and time again. Our members are being subjected to degrading inspections that are driving them out of the education system.
It is time to #AbolishOfsted #TimeForRadicalReform
One-word judgements may be gone but we have one word to describe Ofsted: Failing.
It is letting our educators and our pupils down.
It is time to #AbolishOfsted. #TimeForRadicalReform
A prayer! ‘Please make #eyfs safe from the crazy (powerful) people who want to make children learn phonics from the beginning of nursery and have them sitting and listening like robots, rather than playing. Make them have sense. Amen’

Ofsted claims to operate in the interests of pupils and parents. In reality, this couldn’t be further from the truth. The inspectorate is failing our pupils. That has to change. #AbolishOfsted #TimeForRadicalReform
Ofsted is destroying positive working relationships in schools and driving educators from the profession. Ofsted is not fit for purpose and cannot continue wreaking havoc across the education system. #AbolishOfsted. #TimeForRadicalReform
In October, we launched our Ofsted risk assessment guide to help schools address inspection risks👉https://buff.ly/3VtlcRt
Although the removal of one-word judgments in September was a positive step, we are still advocating for a supportive, effective, and fair system. #AbolishOfsted #NEUChristmas

Some of the stories our members tell us about Ofsted are disgraceful. No child and no educator should be belittled by inspectors. We need systems of support, Ofsted cannot provide that. #AbolishOfsted #TimeForRadicalReform
If the inspectorate isn’t geared towards upskilling educators and supporting them then how can it serve pupils? We need less bureaucracy and more support in our education system. #AbolishOfsted #TimeForRadicalReform
