Ofsted has so far resisted calls from unions to scrap single-word judgements, but one former inspector has told Sky News that reform is 'long overdue'
The former headteacher said he could recall a number of times when he was told he"might want to go and rethink" what he put in an evidence form, as it might not have reconciled with what his colleagues were seeing.
Its general secretary, Paul Whiteman, told Sky News that distress over Ofsted inspections is"not a new phenomenon", adding:"In 2018, we produced a report about inspections and the pressures, but obviously with the tragedy with Ruth Perry, they have been receiving calls of despair and feelings of not being able to sleep at night because of the absolute worry.
"We had four inspectors on site for two days and they were very, very thorough in the things that they looked at," he said."Now we know we are going to get a period of time without Ofsted coming back - we can go to London in June with the pupils and not worry about Ofsted phoning.
