Ofsted has proposed a new model for school inspections in England, replacing one-word judgments with a color-coded report card that evaluates various educational aspects. The decision follows significant criticism of the previous system, which came under scrutiny after the tragic death of head teacher Ruth Perry in 2023. Teacher unions have raised concerns that this new approach could be similar to the discredited system it seeks to improve, highlighting fears regarding its potential impact on educators and school environments. A consultation period is set to begin to gather further insights.
